Swage Procedure
Swaging operation develops extreme pressure on the tooling. Misalignment, wear, or
damaged tooling could result in tooling failure and flying objects which could cause
serious personal injury.
For protection, safety glasses with a face shield must be worn while swaging. All
guarding around the swager should be inspected and in place prior to use.
Note: McLube 1700L must be used on collars prior to swaging. Dip all collars into
McLube 1700L then remove and allow to dry. If Aerosol version is used apply 2-3 coats
allowing each coat to dry thoroughly between each application.
