What is hydraulic swaging?
Hydraulic swaging is a process of balustrading whereby the swaging of the wire to the fittings is achieved using a hydraulic press. This is a machine which applies tonnes of pressure onto the fitting in order to secure the wire into the swage end of the fitting. There are outlets all over the country where you can rent out the machines, alternatively we can pre-swage for a small fee. The most popular fittings in this style are the Jaw Swage bottlescrew and the Fork Terminal. Watch one of our demonstration videos to see how to connect these wires to your posts.
