U Die Kit for HYGROUND Compression
The Burndy UDIEKITHYGRD is a crimping die set built for the HYGROUND system. It contains eight dies, two lower and six upper, in the U style series. The kit works with 4/0 AWG to 500 kcmil copper lugs and 6 to 2 AWG primary applications. It accepts a maximum crimping force of 12 ton from hand or power tools.
Electricians terminating large copper conductors
This kit suits professionals who need a complete U style die range for HYGROUND compression up to 500 kcmil copper. It covers both lug and primary wire sizes in one package. Buyers who need dies for aluminium lugs or sizes beyond 500 kcmil should look at something else. Installers without a 12 ton crimper cannot use the full capacity of this set.
12 ton maximum crimping force rating
The 12 ton force limit is the single figure that decides compatibility. Your crimping tool must deliver this force to use the full wire range. If your tool peaks lower, the largest lugs will not compress correctly. Verify your tool specification before purchasing this die kit.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 12 ton crimping force generate during all-day use?
The dies themselves produce no heat; only the hydraulic tool driving them warms up under continuous 12 ton operation.
Which hydraulic tool must I already own to run these U-style dies?
A 12 ton HYGROUND-compatible crimper with U-style die pockets is required; the kit contains no tool.
Will the 500 kcmil upper dies fit the older lugs I still have in stock?
The six upper dies cover 4/0 AWG through 500 kcmil copper lugs, so existing lugs in that range will crimp correctly.
