Swaging

Swaging is a technique for fixing wire rope and is performed by turning the loose end of a length of wire rope back on itself to form a loop then making an eye splice by clamping a ferrule (or swage or crimp) around the two pieces of wire.Hydraulic ferrules are swaged by a swaging machine whereas hand swages can be clamped by a manual swaging hand tool.Bridco stock an enormous range of Talurit hydraulic ferrules in aluminium, copper and stainless steel as well as hand swages.Bridco sell the superior large swaging machines made by the inventors and undisputed leaders of hydraulic swaging Talurit AB of Sweden.Roll swagers are an ideal machine for swaging terminals and Bridco proudly distributes the industry leading WireTeknik range, also of Swedish origin, see swaging machines below.
