6 Ton Pistol Grip Latch-Head Hydraulic Crimping Tool Kit | REC-MK758U | Makita LXT
6 Ton Pistol Grip Crimping Tool | Auto-Retract | REC-MK758U | Makita Lxt Compatible — Product Overview
The Huskie REC-MK758U is a professional-grade 6 Ton pistol grip hydraulic crimping tool kit engineered to deliver powerful, consistent crimps in a lightweight, compact package. Designed for utility line crews, electrical contractors, and field technicians, this battery-powered crimper combines fast cycle times, precision hydraulic performance, and rugged durability for demanding overhead and underground applications.
Powered by Makita™ 18V Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries, the REC-MK758U features a secure latch-head design that keeps connectors firmly in place throughout the crimping cycle, ensuring reliable and repeatable compression. The innovative Auto-Retract with Jog + Hold trigger gives operators greater control by allowing automatic retraction to be enabled or disabled, while also stopping retraction mid-cycle for faster repetitive crimps and improved productivity.
Optimized hydraulic performance delivers 20% faster advance and 30% faster retraction speeds than previous-generation models, reducing cycle times and increasing the number of crimps per battery charge. The 180° rotating head provides excellent maneuverability in confined work areas, while the compact pistol grip design minimizes user fatigue during extended use.
Compatible with W, O, and X crimping dies (includes D3 nest die), the REC-MK758U is ideal for crimping copper and aluminum lugs, splices, H-Taps, C-Taps, and other utility connectors. Built with a durable steel hydraulic body and backed by Huskie's 5-year tool warranty and 3-year battery warranty, this tool is also 75kV live line rated for added confidence in utility environments.
