Review on πŸ”§ 360Pcs Galvanized Hog Rings Assortment Kit with Straight Hog Ring Pliers – Professional Upholstery Installation for Bungee Shock, Cords, Pet Cages, Bagging by Cristofer Cejudo

Revainrating 1 out of 5

More or less useless tool

In theory, these spring-loaded pliers should grip the hog rings in the grooves on the inside of two cans, allowing the user to pinch the hog rings to caulk the elastic cord or secure to wire mesh fence . That does not work. First, the spring-loaded action forces the user to open the pliers while attempting to grip a small, slippery ring. It's very embarrassing. Second, the grooves for the burrs aren't deep enough to securely hook into the device. Third, pig rings are made of steel, strong steel, and this tool doesn't provide enough leverage to properly squeeze the ends of the ring. I have found that if any pressure is applied to the hog ring it will fly out of the crimper and into the air. This tool can work with a long learning curve, but after about two hours I gave up, even though I used it upside down, with the pig ring gap at the bottom of the tool, not as described in the instructions at the top of the tool. , worked best. It's meant to be a quick and easy crimping tool and shouldn't require a crash course in multitasking, balancing, and grasping Superman-style. Save your money - use a pair of vices, a medium or large size works best for this. procedure
