For utility crews working in demanding, high-stakes environments, reliable crimping and cutting tools are crucial for staying safe and getting the job done right. Faulty crimps or cuts can create the need for costly rework and unnecessary exposure to hazards. Choosing the right crimping tools and cutting tools is one of the most important decisions a crew can make.

BURNDY PATMD-LW IN-LINE® tools, available through Altec Supply, are a trusted solution for keeping crews working safely and efficiently. Designed to support the real-world needs of lineworkers, BURNDY PATMD-LW IN-LINE® tools are a practical solution for crews who rely on equipment day after day in challenging environments.

A Versatile Lineup for Utility Applications

The 6-Ton PATMD-LW IN-LINE® Scissor Action tool is at the center of the BURNDY PATRIOT® line, designed to handle a wide range of crimping and cutting applications. This series offers eight interchangeable crimping and cutting jaws, secured with patented locking jaw tabs that allow crews to adapt quickly without sacrificing reliability.

Both the 6-ton In-Line Crimper Kit with O/D3 Jaw and 6-ton In-Line Crimper with Scissor Action BG/D3 Jaw are built on the same proven 6-Ton PATRIOT® IN-LINE® PATMD-LW scissor-action platform. Each includes an AC charger and utility bag. The PATMD-LW tool body accepts the eight interchangeable crimping and cutting jaws with patented locking tabs, crimping #10 AWG to 500 kcmil and cutting up to 556.5 ACSR, 1000 kcmil aluminum, 750 kcmil copper and 3/8-inch EHS guy wire. This tool series is designed to keep operators versatile and productive across demanding field conditions.

The 6-ton In-Line Cutting Tool packs six-ton scissor-action power into a smaller, lighter frame. Its interchangeable cable-cutting jaw slices cleanly through copper, aluminum and ACSR, while the trimmed design makes it easy to handle one-handed in tight spaces or in the bucket.

Designed for the Demands of the Job

Across the PATMD-LW IN-LINE® lineup, crews benefit from features designed to enhance productivity, comfort and safety in the field. A lightweight, compact and ergonomic design helps reduce operator fatigue during extended use, while compatibility with 2.0Ah–6.0Ah 18V Lithium-ion Makita batteries provides the cordless convenience crews need to work efficiently.

An integrated LED work light improves visibility in low-light conditions, and a safety trigger lock paired with patented locking jaw tabs supports secure operation. For added versatility, many PATMD-LW IN-LINE® tools feature 355-degree head rotation for easier access in confined spaces, along with interchangeable scissor-action crimping and cutting jaws that allow crews to adapt quickly to a variety of applications.
