klämmverktyg

Klämmverktyg, often translated as crimping tools or swaging tools, are mechanical devices used to fasten two or more objects together by deforming one or both of them to interlock them. This process is common in various industries, including electrical, plumbing, and manufacturing. The primary function of a klämmverktyg is to create a secure and permanent or semi-permanent connection without the need for welding, adhesives, or traditional fasteners like screws or rivets.

Different types of klämmverktyg exist depending on the specific application. For electrical work, they are used to attach connectors, such as spade terminals or ring terminals, to the ends of wires. This ensures a reliable electrical connection and prevents the wire strands from fraying. In plumbing, klämmverktyg are employed to create leak-proof seals on pipes, typically by compressing a metal ring around a fitting. These tools often utilize leverage to apply significant force, allowing for precise and consistent compression. The design and size of a klämmverktyg are tailored to the materials being joined and the required strength of the connection.
