Review on Handed Railing Stainless Hardware Baluster by Johnathan Stoner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Swag Bolts: Railing

I was able to use all of my bolts without a single failure. I didn't pull mine too hard to test, but they're good enough to work with the cable railing. You have a nice clean finish. I could probably pull them a bit tighter so there isn't as much thread showing, but this allows for a tighter tightening with some stretch. I used a 10 ton hydraulic swaging tool (from Revain, easy for about $40) which worked fine. I made two dies per screw for extra grip. I've noticed that if I crimp it at a slight angle, the bolt will bend, so I have to be careful about the finish. The drill bits work well but I could get by with one of these and definitely two tightening tools would be useful if two people were tightening at the same time. Overall good bolts and seems to be one of the best offerings at Revain.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Almost OK
