Swaging equipment is used to create secure wire terminations for standing rigging and cable systems. We supply Wireteknik roll swaging machines, hydraulic swaging machines, pumps and dies suitable for professional rigging workshops and marine engineering applications.

Correctly swaged fittings provide strong, reliable connections capable of withstanding high loads and long-term marine exposure.

Accurate measurement helps maintain balanced rig loads and improves long-term reliability.
