A Heavy Duty Hydraulic ACSR Conductor Cutter is a tool used to cut high‑strength electrical conductors known as ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced). These conductors have aluminum for conductivity and a steel core for strength. The cutter uses a hydraulic mechanism to generate high cutting force, allowing clean cuts even in tough, thick conductors.
Key Features
1.Ability to cut ACSR conductors up to ~40 mm diameter without damaging the strands.
2.Hydraulic operation, often similar in function to a hydraulic jack—pump handle + knob‑handle to open/close the cutting head.
3.Jaws/blades made of special alloy steel (heat treated) for strength, durability, and to prevent flattening or deforming the conductor.
4.Hose, handle, pole sometimes made with insulating material / tested for high voltage safety (e.g. epoxy‑glas, safety testing, dielectric strength) especially useful when working near live or high voltage lines.
