Hahaha, at 7:17 "... you can see how easy this is; and it doesn't take a lot of force..." right after his eyes have popped out of their sockets at 6:58.
This is great information and all I need to do my job! Thank You!
Awesome tutorial 👌
4 AWG works well for 3/16" wire rope swaging.
Great video. Bout to get to work on mine now. Thanks.
Thank you
Thanks - very helpful
Good vid guys. Thanks
were i can get that hydraulic crimping machine
I did this same single crimp and out of 2 ends 1 slipped. I think 2 crimps per end in 2 different spots is key. I would rather only crimp once but, It would ruin a hole run if one end slips
on cable for deck haas suggest turning 90 degree angle and do a second crimp????
Great info, thanks
Thanks
Great video
Thanks Wyatt
Does that hydraulic press automatically "release" at some constant hydraulic pressure "maximum", or it it all done haphazardly, by hand pressure, "by feel" only?.... Do you use some type of "go-no go" guage, to determine if each crimp has been squeezed far enough?!.... THANK YOU, FOR A VERY NICE TOOL DEMO VIDEO!!
There is a maximum pressure release, but if you trigger this then you are either a weight lifter or there is a fault with the unit. 😁
@@HammersmithDIYis that a design pressure beyond which the tool will be permanently damaged or is there an actual pressure release valve or similar?
There is a pressure release valve.
@@HammersmithDIY excellent 👍
I’m having an awful lot of trouble trying to register an account on your website I just want to place an order.
We are aware of an issue. You don’t need an account to place an order. If you are still struggling you can just email us what you want.
Hi. Nice video. But I wonder if this metode is ok for swaging shrouds on sailboats? Best regards.
Runar Andersen sorry, but I don’t know the answer to your question
The recommendation from this side of the pond is to use Norseman fittings. More reliable than swaging and it's named after you.
Good tool! Sometimes when I crimp the fastener will deform and bind. How do I keep it straight? Thanks
Not sure exactly what you mean, but perhaps give us a call if it is an issue.
Do you have the same stainless fittings for 5mm stainless cable??
We don’t stock them, but we could get them for you if you emailed us a list of what you wanted.
Do you ship to US ?
Unfortunately we do not.
Do you have links for these different fittings? Also the tool link didn't work for me. Thanks for the video
D & T. M we are out of stock of this tool for another week, so I have disabled it on the website. The fittings can all be found on our website
Hi Wyatt, superb video ! can you tell me what diameter the no.6 is? In UK and cant get your model here sadly
Not really sure of the diameter. I am guessing the 6 means 6mm, but can’t say for certain. The tool is made for crimping electrical cable, but we obviously use it for a different purpose. We can ship to the Uk. Send me a list of what you want via email and we can do you a quote.
I would agree with the HDIY that its 6mm as y'all are not from the USA which means its not AWG.. You might have to do some trial an error depending on the tools dies, rope and what its intended use is but its always doable.
How wide are the dies that come with this tool?
How would this go with Gym cables for max loads of 200kg?
Zenon Fitness I would have no issues with the wire breaking. My biggest concern would be what you would be fixing the fitting onto.
Good video however it would have been much better if you could have had the camera a bit nearer so we could have actually seen things clearer
Watch the video at the 6 minute mark he actually does a close up
8:30 sorry for being pedantic but test should show that the cable breaks before the connection, not that it pulled out of the timber. Your test checked the quality of the timber, not the fitting.
Also, you didn’t say if the failure tension exceeded the fitting’s rating or not. If it pulled out below the tension rating, the test is meaningless.
I’d recommend you do a test where the anchoring isn’t the failure point.
Skippy does cable railings.
Sounds like expensive crimping just fancy name
Is this tool made in China?
Unfortunately it is, but it is from a reliable supplier that we have purchased 1000’s from.
@@HammersmithDIY OK - Thanks
Expensive...
Not really. We also have a cheaper priced mini version that can be found on our website
SHOULD *** be enough he says , hmmmm , sounds like it SHOULD be safe . Hahaha
