Oval Copper Swage Sleeves ALL SIZES

Description

Oval Copper Swage Sleeves connect to Stainless Steel Wire Rope. An Oval Copper Swage Sleeve may be called a crimp, clamp, ferrule, or tube. These Swage Sleeves are oval in shape and conform to internationally accepted standards (EN 13411-3 and DIN 3093 are the standards to which these items are produced). Hourglass Swages are “manual swages”. We recommend swaging/crimping these Sleeves with a Hydraulic Press to retain a predictable finish and reliable MBS. Sleeves below 3mm may be crimped manually, but larger OVAL sleeves MUST be crimped hydraulically. Oval Sleeves require thimbles for their use.

Usage: The Swage Sleeves anchor together 2 strands of wire. Copper and Stainless ferrules are compatible with Stainless Steel Wire Rope. Stainless Swage Sleeves suit agressive environments. The increased malleability of Copper allows for easy swaging. To clarify, swaging is the process of uniformly crushing a fitting from a starting diameter to a finished diameter. Therefore, the chosen swaging tool must achieve a cold pressure weld. Logically, the requisite pressure and tool size varies with the size of the wire and the fitting. Proper sizing and swaging technique using Swage Sleeve splicing confers 90% of the wire rope breaking strength given the resultant splice conforms with published and tested tables.

Quality: All Low Cost Wire products meet our strict ISO Quality Standards. As well, they are all made with AISI Marine Grade stainless steel. Firstly, our products achieve the optimal balance between high tensile strength, fatigue resistance, abrasion resistance, and structural stability. Secondly, that long experience with design and manufacturing enables the specification and production of aesthetically beautiful and functional products. Finally, our products have a special electro polished treatment. This give a bright and smooth surface. The look delivers a truly top-shelf, long lasting product that will look new for ages…
