When it comes to precision manufacturing and heavy-duty assembly work, swaging tools play a pivotal role in ensuring that bearings are securely fitted into their designated locations. Whether you're in a high-volume production setting or a tight clearance area, the right swaging tool can make all the difference. In this article, we'll explore two types of swaging tools—Standard Drill Press Swaging Tools and Standard Portable Swaging Tools, as well as the world of custom tooling for those complex, unique applications.
Standard Drill Press Swaging Tools: Power Meets Precision

Standard Drill Press Swaging Tools are the backbone of heavy-duty assembly operations. These tools are designed to be used in conjunction with a heavy-duty drill press and come equipped with a ½ inch shank. What sets them apart is their first and second side swage base, which ensures a 100% bearing swage. This means that you can trust these tools to securely fit bearings with unmatched precision.
These swaging tools are the go-to choice for those operating in a production environment. Their compatibility with drill presses ensures a seamless and efficient swaging process, making them a valuable addition to any manufacturing setup.
Standard Portable Swaging Tools: On-the-Go Precision

Not all swaging tasks occur in a spacious production facility. Sometimes, you need to take your swaging skills on the road or work in tight clearance areas. That's where Standard Portable Swaging Tools come into play. These tools are operated by hand with a ½ inch socket wrench and feature first and second side swage plates, just like their drill press counterparts. This combination allows for a complete 100% bearing swage, ensuring the same level of precision and security you'd expect from any high-quality swaging tool.
The portability of these tools makes them invaluable for "on the wing" swaging and repair jobs. Their ease of use and efficiency ensure that even in the most challenging conditions, your swaging tasks can be completed with confidence.
Custom Tooling: Tailored Solutions for Unique Challenges
In the world of swaging, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Some applications require specialized tooling due to unique part configurations, tight clearance situations, ribbed sections, reduced clearance areas, or custom-size bearings. That's where custom tooling comes into play.
