I am happy! - I had no previous experience crimping fittings to a/c hoses. I installed a Vintage Air system in my 1971 Chevelle. In the Vintage Air SureFit kit there are three hoses that you have to cut to length and install the fittings. Each of the hoses is a different size #6, #8, #10. Each hose already has one fitting crimped on one end. You are supposed to install the evaporator, compressor, drier, hard line, etc., attach the hoses to the condenser, install condenser under the dash,run the hoses through the firewall (through the passenger air vent) and cut your hoses to the proper length. Then you are supposed to slide the fittings on the end of the hoses to determine the correct position to connect to the compressor and evaporator. You mark the position of each of the fittings and then uninstall the hoses and bring the marked hoses and fittings to a shop to crimp the fittings in the correct position. It was a major job to get everything installed and removing the hoses would have been a major task. I wanted a crimper that would allow me to install the fittings without removing the hoses. The Hydra-Krimp 71500 worked perfectly. I was able to line up each fitting, mark it, and crimp it with no hose removal. I used three different size dies to crimp the 3 sizes of fittings/hoses. I put a little bit of mineral oil on the dies to allow them to freely move on the fitting as the metal is being compressed. When I took my car in to have the system vacuumed and charged with R143a, the technician asked where I got my hoses crimped. I told him I did it myself. He said they looked great and appeared professionally made. The system got a 2 hour vacuum and a full charge with R134a with no leaks. I am happy. I was concerned at first that the kit did not specifically have a die for #6 hose but it turns out the #8 SRB die is the same as the #6. I was able to crimp all three sizes #6, #8, and #10. The Hydra-Krimp 71500 kit comes with a nice hose cutter that worked great. It also comes with a hydraulic seal ring rebuild kit for the crimper. It was not hard to use and not too hard to pump up and get a good crimp. The hardest part was keeping the fitting aligned on the hose and in the crimper as you start crimping. The set comes in a nice sturdy case. It seems to be very good quality for the price. It appears to be the same quality as units costing twice as much. I am very happy with the purchase and the performance. I included a picture of the two crimped fittings installed on the compressor.

This works good for ac and power steering hose but they are lighter fittings. We had a manual press set up to make them for our farm equipment and it takes some hard cranking for them to crimp properly. **Q: Will this work on Flexzilla air hose with 1/4" ID?** A: It should, I've crimped A/C, 3/8 & 1/2" air hose and even garden hose. It makes nice factory looking crimps. 1/4" id should be about the size of #6 ac hose, all the dies are marked # by ac size. **Q: Can this be used for heavy-duty vehicles withe the biger hoses?** A: Most use 6#-12# hose on any automotive/truck ac systems. I redid my Pusher Diesel RV to change from an AC orifice system to an expansion valve. New hose to the condenser which must be crimped in place because the fitting will not pass thru the frame rails premade. The kit makes excellent crimps, no problems or leaks whatsoever. With the correct fittings you could do custom fuel and power steering hoses too. **Q: Do you have the ability to supply a smooth die instead of the one supplied in the photo?** A: There are not any smooth dies in the kit. They may offer one. You would have to contact the company to find out M ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Great!

It works EXACTLY like it should, and produces PERFECT crimps every time! I used this tool during the Vintage Air install in my 1970 Camaro, and it produced factory perfect crimps on all 6 crimps I performed. I have shown the 4 crimps I made in the engine compartment. The other 2 would be too hard to photograph, but rest assured, they look just like the 4 pictured. But visual inspection doesn't qualify the quality of the crimps, PERFORMANCE does. As you can see in the last picture, I evacuated the system and pulled almost 30 in hg of vacuum. That last picture was taken 24 hours after system evacuation, and as you can see, ZERO vacuum loss. That speaks volumes for the quality of crimps you can expect from this tool. Buy this tool with confidence that it will perform as it should! ## Frequently Bought Together - IBOSAD Hydraulic AC Hose Crimper Hydra-Krimp 71500 Manual A/C Hose Crimper Kit Air Conditioning Repaire Handheld Hydraulic Hose Crimping Tool for BH Air Conditioner Hose & Beadlock A/C Fittings - Wisepick 25PCS Air Conditioning Hose and Fitting Kit Includes 6.5ft #6#8#10 AC Hoses and #6#8#10 AC Fittings - Wisepick 40PCS Hose Ferrule Set #6#8#10#12 Size Color Zinc Coating and Blue White Zinc Coating --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/146870316-ibosad-hydraulic-ac-hose-crimper-hydra-krimp-71500-manual-c](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/146870316-ibosad-hydraulic-ac-hose-crimper-hydra-krimp-71500-manual-c) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
