Loos Locoloc Hand Swaging Tool 1/4-3/8
This Loos Locoloc hand swaging tool is designed for fastening and removing oval and stop sleeves on wire, cable and wire rope assemblies. Heat-treated steel jaws deliver a secure crimp across the stated size range. The 25 in handle length gives the operator leverage and control on a variety of projects. It suits maintenance technicians and riggers who need a portable manual swager.
Manual swaging limits for oval and stop sleeves
The tool only accepts oval and stop sleeves in the 1/4 to 3/8 inch range; other sleeve types or sizes cannot be crimped with this model. Manual operation requires the operator to supply all force, so very large or high-strength assemblies may exceed practical hand pressure. Hydraulic hose assemblies within the size range can be swaged, but the tool offers no ratchet or hydraulic assist. Buyers who need to swage larger sleeves or different sleeve profiles must select a different tool.
25 inch handle length for leverage
The 25 in handle provides the mechanical advantage needed to compress sleeves in the 1/4 to 3/8 inch range by hand. This length determines the force the operator can apply and the workspace required to operate the tool. If the available clearance is smaller than the handle swing, the tool cannot be used effectively. Buyers who need a more compact swager for confined spaces should consider a different model.
