Product Overview

The Deacon Wire 8″ Hand Held Wire Rope Swager is the go-to tool for creating neat loop terminations on lightweight wire rope assemblies. It is specifically designed to crimp standard aluminium and copper ferrules (DIN standard) onto 1.5mm and 2mm wire rope.

Unlike pliers or makeshift crimping methods which can deform the ferrule unevenly, this dedicated swager features precision-machined cavities that apply uniform pressure around the fitting. This ensures a secure grip on the wire and a professional finish. With comfortable vinyl-coated handles and an integrated wire cutter, it offers a complete solution for light-duty rigging, shop fitting, and architectural projects.

Important Safety Notice: This is a hand-operated tool. Swaged terminations made with this tool should be considered for general securing and static load applications only. For critical safety applications or overhead lifting, all assemblies must be proof-loaded and tested by a competent person.
