Milwaukee 2679-20 M18 Force Logic 600 Mcm Crimper

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 2679-20 is a cordless hydraulic cable crimper built on the M18 battery platform, designed to crimp copper and aluminum lugs and connectors up to 600 MCM. It delivers consistent, high-force crimps without a corded power source, making it a practical tool for electricians working in tight spaces, panels, or job sites where cord management is a liability. The tool is part of Milwaukee's Force Logic line, which uses a guided ram system to help ensure full, repeatable crimps on each cycle. It is sold as a tool-only unit, without a battery or charger.

The 2679-20 is used in commercial and industrial electrical work where large-conductor terminations are required. Typical applications include service entrance wiring, switchgear installations, feeder runs, and other high-capacity conductor terminations. It is suited for licensed electricians handling wire sizes from small lugs up to 600 MCM, replacing manual or pump-style hydraulic crimpers on the job.

Key Features

• Cordless hydraulic crimping on the M18 18-volt battery platform — battery sold separately
• Rated for conductors and lugs up to 600 MCM copper and aluminum
• Force Logic guided ram system promotes full, consistent crimp cycle completion
• Eliminates the need for corded or hand-pump hydraulic tools in the field
• Tool-only configuration (2679-20) compatible with the full M18 battery ecosystem

Compatibility

Designed as a tool-only unit compatible with Milwaukee M18 18-volt batteries and chargers. No specific die or battery compatibility beyond the M18 platform was stated in the product data — verify die compatibility and battery requirements with Milwaukee documentation before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for conductor terminations. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before making any terminations on existing conductors. Confirm that the lug or connector being crimped is rated for the conductor size and material being terminated. Do not force the tool to complete a cycle if resistance is felt before the ram returns — inspect the die and connector seating before proceeding.
