A portable manual hose crimper is designed to crimp compatible hose and fitting assemblies in field service environments or workshops. Operated by a manual hydraulic hand pump, it can be used without an electric motor, making it a practical option for mobile maintenance teams, hose service providers, and technicians working at remote service locations.
HIDROMAN offers manual hose crimping solutions designed around portability, practical operation, and compatible die options. For applications where a hose assembly needs to be prepared or replaced at the job site, a portable hose crimper can help reduce the need to transport the assembly to a fixed workshop.
A manual hydraulic hose crimper uses hydraulic force generated by a hand pump to move the crimping jaws and compress a compatible hose and fitting assembly. When the correct hose, fitting, die set, and crimp specifications are used, the process creates a mechanical connection designed for the intended application.
Unlike larger stationary hose crimping machines, portable models are designed for transport and use in service areas with limited space. A manually powered configuration can be particularly useful where electrical power is unavailable.
Portable design: Suitable for mobile service, field maintenance, and on-site hose assembly work.
Manual hydraulic operation: A compatible hand-pump configuration allows operation without an electric motor.
Compact construction: Designed for use in workshops, service vehicles, and maintenance areas.
Operator-oriented design: Features intended to support practical handling and crimping operations.
Compatible die options: The H16 die family provides different size options for compatible hose and fitting combinations.
Field service flexibility: Helps technicians perform selected hose assembly tasks at the service location when suitable components and tooling are available.
The following specifications are listed for the HIDROMAN H16P portable manual hose crimper.
| Specification | Value |

Important: Crimping range and maximum hose size do not, by themselves, establish compatibility with every hose assembly. Confirm the hose construction, fitting type, die selection, and required crimp diameter against the hose manufacturer's specifications.
The H16 die family includes the following size options and product codes.
| Die size | Product code |
|---|---|
| H16-10 | 9070-16-10 |
| H16-12 | 9070-16-12 |
| H16-14 | 9070-16-14 |
| H16-16 | 9070-16-16 |
| H16-19 | 9070-16-19 |
| H16-23 | 9070-16-23 |
| H16-27 | 9070-16-27 |
| H16-31 | 9070-16-31 |
Die selection must follow the applicable hose and fitting manufacturer's requirements. The correct die cannot be determined by hose outside diameter alone.
Portable manual hose crimpers may be suitable for compatible hose assembly applications in:
Construction equipment and mobile machinery maintenance
Hydraulic hose service and mobile repair operations
Industrial maintenance workshops
Suitable textile-reinforced, low-pressure hose assemblies
Selected water and air hose applications
Compatible auxiliary equipment and air-conditioning hose assemblies
Not every hose type can be crimped with a manual portable machine. High-pressure wire-braided and spiral-reinforced hydraulic hoses require equipment, dies, and crimp specifications approved for the particular hose and fitting combination.
Hose diameter and construction: Identify the hose size, outside diameter, reinforcement type, and fitting design.
Crimping capacity: Verify that the machine's crimping range and force meet the requirements of the intended assembly.
Die compatibility: Select dies according to the hose and fitting manufacturer's crimp specifications.
Portability: Consider the machine's weight, dimensions, transport method, and available working space.
Power source: Choose a manual hand-pump configuration or another compatible pump option according to the operating environment.
Operator safety: Secure the machine as required, use the correct tooling, and keep hands clear of the crimping jaws during operation.

HIDROMAN supports mobile maintenance teams, hose service providers, and industrial customers with hose crimping equipment and hydraulic service solutions.
The H16P portable manual hose crimper combines a compact format, manual hydraulic operation, and H16 die options for compatible hose assembly work in the field or workshop.
Contact HIDROMAN with your hose type, diameter, fitting specifications, and expected crimping volume to help identify a suitable hose crimping solution for your application.
