When you’re building hydraulic hoses or making emergency repairs in the field, having the right die set makes the difference between a crimp that holds and one that fails when you need it most. This .550-inch (14mm) split die set is precision-made for crimping 1/4-inch specialty hydraulic hose with a tight, reliable seal that won’t let you down.
What You’re Getting
- Precision .550-inch (14mm) split die designed for consistent, professional crimps every time
- Perfect fit for 1/4-inch specialty hydraulic hose applications
- Compatible with D165 and D160 series crimpers for versatile workshop use
- Durable construction that maintains accurate sizing through hundreds of crimps
Built for Real Farm Work
This die set is designed for the smaller hydraulic lines you’ll find on implements, auxiliary circuits, and specialty equipment. Whether you’re working on a baler’s hydraulic controls, loader joystick lines, or any system that uses 1/4-inch hose, this die delivers the precise crimp diameter needed for a leak-free connection that handles operating pressure.
Made to Last
Quality tooling pays for itself over time, and this split die is built to maintain its precision through years of regular use. The hardened construction resists wear while the split design ensures even pressure distribution around the entire fitting for consistent results.
Good to Know
This die works specifically with D165 and D160 crimper models, so make sure you’ve got the right machine before ordering. Keep your dies clean and lightly oiled between uses to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation. A properly crimped fitting should have no gaps in the crimp pattern and the hose should be secure without being over-compressed.
