Parker Offers Karrykrimp Hose-Crimping Promotion

The latest generation of portable hose-crimping technology from Parker Hannifin is available for GBP1 with an order of hoses and fittings. The Karrykrimp promotion enables companies with regular hose requirements to create their own leak-free, high-quality assemblies quickly and cost effectively. The system consists of a compact standalone unit, which incorporates a unitised die-train.

The relevant fitting is positioned on the end of the hose and the pair can then be inserted into the unit and crimped, producing a leak-free connection. The Karrykrimp is available with a portable hand pump and a turbo air pump. To ensure crimping is achieved correctly and safely, users should be trained in line with Parker standards, for example, through a local Parker distributor. The Karrykrimp range of crimpers - Karrykrimp 1 and Karrykrimp 2 - offers crimping of a variety of Parker No-Skive hose and fittings.

These include all one- and two-wire braided SN and compact hoses up to DN32, as well as four spiral EN856 hoses up to DN25. The system is suitable for companies in a range of industries, including construction, transportation, materials-handling and the automotive sector. Karrykrimp1 can be purchased for GBP1 when an order is placed for GBP2500 of hose, fitting and dies, and Karrykrimp2 can be purchased for the same price when GBP4,000 of products is ordered.
