Collection: Hand Swaged Balustrade Kits

Hand-swaged kits use a thimble and ferrule at each end of the wire to create a loop, which is then used to attach the fittings. When using a hand-swaged kit, you will need to assemble the wires onsite after they have been passed through any center posts. A hand-swaging tool is required to complete this process.

These kits require 3.2mm 7x7 wire.
