Klauke EKM 60 ID ISM VDE | Electrical Safety Tools

Orange Tools with Insulated Protection for Cutting & Crimping Cables

The Klauke EKM 60 is a battery powered cable crimping tool that has a large crimping range for cable lugs and connectors up to 240sqmm – suitable for crimping tubular cable lugs and connectors.

The EKM 60 is part of the Klauke Orange Tool range insulated and VDE certified to 1000 V for increased safety when working on potentially voltage-carrying electrical equipment or crimping conductors to facilitate the installation of joints and terminations.

The orange housing of the battery powered cable crimping tool makes it easily differentiated from standard crimping tools and the built-in display allows user to view all tool data instantly.

Extra large crimping area due to innovative 2-stage telescopic cylinders (patent pending) and indent crimping so no change of dies is required.
