Frequently Asked Questions About Wire and Cable Hand Tools

The $28.3 billion global hand tool market can be confusing to navigate, but Nicopress has the answers to your questions. Here are some of the common inquiries we receive.

Can I use Nicopress hand tools on stainless steel cable?

Yes, but only with tools and dies specifically rated for stainless steel. Using the wrong tool can lead to incomplete swages or tool damage.

How often should I calibrate my wire and cable hand tools?

You should check calibration regularly, especially if you use the tool frequently or for critical applications. Nicopress provides calibration instructions and gauges to help ensure consistent performance.

Do I need protective gear to use these tools?

While the tools are manually operated, gloves and eye protection are strongly recommended. Cutting and swaging can generate force or debris, so it’s smart to take precautions.

The Right Size for Every Setup

Nicopress offers wire and cable hand tools in various sizes to match the demands of different jobs and cable types. Whether you're working with fine-gauge tracer wire or thick wire rope, there's a tool sized for the task. Lighter, compact options are ideal for tight spaces or one-handed use, while larger models deliver extra leverage and power.

We engineer each size for balance and control, with a no-slip grip that keeps you focused on the work. No matter your wire diameter or sleeve spec, there's a Nicopress wire rope tool that fits without compromise.
