Value Collection 859 00021 Single Groove Swaging Tool

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 859 00021 is a single groove swaging tool designed for crimping wire rope sleeves in rigging and cable assembly applications. Built from steel for durability under repeated use, this tool applies controlled compression to 1/4 inch oval and stop sleeves, creating secure, load-bearing terminations on wire rope assemblies. It is a hand-operated tool suited for rigging shops, marine maintenance crews, and field technicians who regularly terminate wire rope on lifelines, guy wires, and structural cable systems. The steel construction resists deformation during the swaging cycle, maintaining crimp geometry across repeated operations.

This swaging tool is used wherever wire rope requires field or shop termination with oval or stop sleeves at 1/4 inch sleeve size. Typical applications include safety lifelines, tensioning cables, fence wire, and general rigging assemblies in construction, marine, and industrial maintenance environments. It is appropriate for both shop bench use and job-site field work where portable swaging capability is needed without a hydraulic press.

Key Features

• Single groove die profile sized for 1/4 inch oval and stop sleeves
• Steel construction provides resistance to deformation under swaging load
• Hand-operated design allows field use without hydraulic or powered equipment
• Compatible with standard oval and stop sleeve wire rope termination hardware
• Weighs 5 pounds for a balance of durability and portability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hand swaging tool for use with 1/4 inch oval and stop wire rope sleeves in standard wire rope termination applications.

Installation Notes

Wire rope swaging tools are typically used by riggers, marine technicians, and maintenance mechanics familiar with wire rope termination procedures. Before swaging, verify the sleeve size matches the wire rope diameter and that the correct groove is engaged. Apply even handle pressure through the full swaging stroke to achieve a complete crimp. Inspect the finished swage for uniform compression and no cracking before applying load to the assembly.
