Description

Light Duty Hydraulic Swaging Tool

This handy, easy to use Light Duty Hydraulic Swaging Tool is suitable for crimping (also called 'swaging' - pronounced 'sway-jing') stainless steel, copper and aluminium fittings for wire rope. It is most commonly supplied residential wire balustrade projects which require crimping M5 and M6 stainless steel swage fittings such as bottlescrews and swage stud terminals for 3.2mm wire.

You can also crimp copper swage fittings such as those for 3.2mm wire (use the #10 dies supplied). Bear in mind the crimp is in a hexagon shape as opposed to the rounded shape you will get with a mechanical swager.

It features a pressure auto-release function that kicks in once the 5T pressure has been reached. This safety feature will prevent damage from over crimping and allows you to quickly crimp without second guessing pressure levels. Not all tools on the market have this feature. It is very handy.

  • Suitably crimps 1mm, 2mm, 3mm and 3.2mm stainless wire
  • Pressure auto-release feature engages once the max. pressure has been achieved. Simplifies and speeds up crimping operations
  • The crimping diameter is 7.2mm
  • Hexagonal shaped contact moulds impresses a hexagonal shape crimp on your swage fittings
  • Comfortable hand grips for easy use
  • Chrome vanadium plated alloy dies
  • Range of interchangable dies, simply and easily swapped
  • Strong, forged chromed steel jaw
  • Two-handed operation
  • Spare o-rings are supplied in a protective photosensitive bag for future maintenance
  • Suitable for crimping stainless terminals, such as fork terminals, rigging screws, bottlescrews, swage terminals - all commonly found in our wire balustrading kits
