The Milwaukee 2679-750AL M18™ FORCE LOGIC™ 600 MCM Aluminum Crimper with 750 MCM Expanded Jaw is built for commercial electrical terminations where accuracy, inspection, and throughput matter. Using Milwaukee® 6T U-Style dies with bold wire-size and industry color markings, this setup produces cULus Classified crimps per UL 486A-B on #8–750 MCM copper and on dual-rated color-coded lugs and splices from leading brands. The inline body and 340° rotating head make it easier to approach connectors inside crowded panels or gear. A proprietary jaw holds the connector for instant alignment, while the easy-open, latched design speeds repetitive work on larger aluminum conductors.
Predictive Force Monitoring (PFM™) controls output to reach and verify full pressure every cycle; the green LED gives instant confirmation before you move on. Fully enclosed high-speed hydraulics, a POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, and weather-protected electronics support consistent performance from 0°F to 122°F. ONE-KEY™ captures crimp data for professional report building. The jaw set is interchangeable with other FORCE LOGIC™ options so crews can swap between 600 MCM, 750 MCM crimping, and 750 MCM cutting jaws as work changes.

Contractors and panel shops need a crimping tool that aligns quickly, verifies pressure, and leaves a clear visual inspection. The 2679-750AL’s proprietary jaw holds the connector steady so the conductor seats correctly before the cycle starts. PFM™ removes guesswork by confirming full pressure, and the green LED signals a completed crimp—useful when closing out many terminations in a shift. The U-Style die system with wire-size imprint speeds inspections and punch-list sign-offs. With jaw interchangeability, crews can stay on the same M18™ platform while moving from 600 MCM to expanded 750 MCM work or switching to a cutting jaw, reducing tool changes and downtime.

Why Professionals Choose the Milwaukee M18 FORCE LOGIC 600 MCM Al Crimper w/ 750 MCM Expanded Jaw
Installers choose this M18 crimper for accurate, UL 486A-B classified results and straightforward inspection. The U-Style dies provide clear size and color codes, and they imprint the wire size onto the lug, which speeds QA and closeout. The inline design with a 340° rotating head reaches tight switchboards and gear where a C-head tool is awkward. PFM™ delivers the force needed for uniform connections on large aluminum feeders, and the green LED saves time by showing the cycle is complete. With ONE-KEY, supervisors can export crimp records for commissioning packets. Crews standardizing on the M18 battery platform get a compact, 8.2-lb bare tool that runs fast cycles and shares packs across other tools.
Milwaukee 2679-750AL M18 FORCE LOGIC 600 MCM Al Crimper w/ 750 MCM Expanded Jaw – Tool Only Notes for Buyers (quick tips)
- Die/Connector Matching: Use the included U-Style 6T die chart; verify size and color against the connector manufacturer’s spec. For UL-classified results, match die, connector, and conductor exactly.
- Connector Hold & Alignment: Let the proprietary jaw hold the lug while you seat the conductor fully; confirm flats are aligned before cycling.
- Aluminum Conductor Prep: Brush oxide thoroughly and apply the specified inhibitor; keep strands straight to avoid fold-over.
- Crimp Sequencing: On multi-crimp connectors, follow the maker’s sequence (often center-out). Mark each location with a paint pen.
- Cycle Verification: Wait for the green LED. If not seen, use the release, inspect, and follow your rework procedure—don’t stack a second crimp over an uncertain first.
- Battery Management: Keep packs warm in cold weather (near 0°F) and shaded in heat; run the tool’s pre-crimp check and swap packs if prompted.
- Head Orientation: Rotate the head to keep force in line with the connector; avoid side-loading large Al lugs.
- Inspection Cues: Confirm the die index imprint and expected flash; perform a tug test per spec before heat-shrink or tape.
- Jaw Changes: Power down and keep the work area clean when swapping to 600 MCM or 750 MCM jaws; check die seats for debris before cycling.
- Maintenance: Wipe the head/ram after dusty work; lightly oil corrosion-prone surfaces; replace worn dies to maintain uniform impressions.
