HOGERT 250 mm compression pliers CrV HT1P382

Compression pliers HOGERT 250 mm (model HT1P382) are a hand tool designed for compressing fittings, sleeves and ferrules in plumbing and electrical installations. Manufactured from chrome‑vanadium (CrV) steel, the pliers combine a 250 mm overall length with long handles that increase leverage and enable controlled, firm compression. The tool is suitable for repeated use in workshop or on-site environments where consistent joint strength is required.

Advantages

The chrome‑vanadium construction provides enhanced wear resistance and structural stability under load. The 250 mm length and extended handles deliver improved mechanical advantage, reducing operator effort while maintaining precise control during compression tasks. The pliers’ biting and compression surfaces are shaped for reliable grip on common ferrules and sleeves, and the overall design supports both professional tradespeople and DIY users seeking a durable, easy-to-handle compression tool.

Suitable for

• Compressing copper, aluminum and multilayer pipe fittings
• Securing sleeves and ferrules in plumbing repairs and installations
• Electrical cable lug compression where mechanical crimping is required
• On-site maintenance and workshop assembly tasks

Key specifications

• Overall length: 250 mm
• Material: chrome‑vanadium (CrV) steel
• Design: long-handled compression pliers
• Intended use: compression of fittings, sleeves and ferrules
• Finish: corrosion-resistant steel surface treatment

How to use

Position the ferrule or fitting between the compression jaws, aligning it with the pipe or cable as required. Grip the handles and apply steady pressure until the ferrule is compressed to form a secure mechanical joint. Release the handles and inspect the connection for even compression around the circumference. For repeat operations, check the tool for wear and maintain clean contact surfaces to ensure consistent performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the pliers with appropriate-sized fittings and avoid applying excessive force beyond the intended task to prevent damage to the workpiece or tool. Keep the CrV surfaces clean and lightly oiled to reduce corrosion and extend service life. For certified electrical joints or high-pressure plumbing systems, verify that the compressed connection meets industry standards and, if necessary, use a calibrated crimping tool specified for those applications.
