  • How Does a Wire Rope Sling Making Machine Work?

    A wire rope sling making machine works by using controlled hydraulic force to permanently compress a metal ferrule (sleeve) around the looped end of a steel wire rope — a process known as swaging or crimping. The result is a lifting sling with a mechanical joint that, when properly made, develops t...

1. What Is the GT-200 Steel Wire Rope Press Machine Used For? – Core Applications

The GT-200 steel wire rope press machine is a portable, handheld hydraulic swaging tool designed for on-site termination of wire rope slings, Flemish eyes, stop sleeves, and loop splices using aluminum or copper sleeves. It is widely used by rigging technicians, maintenance crews, offshore platforms, and mobile repair teams where portability and ease of use are critical.

With a maximum pressing force of 200 kN (20 tons) and a compact design weighing only 6.5 kg (14.3 lbs), the GT-200 handles wire rope diameters from 1.5 mm to 8 mm, producing terminations that retain 95–100% of rope breaking strength. Unlike bench-mounted presses, the GT-200 can be used in elevated work platforms, ship decks, and confined spaces, reducing downtime by eliminating the need to transport ropes back to a workshop.

2. Key Feature #1: Portable Design with Optimal Pressing Force

The GT-200 delivers 200 kN (20 tons) of hydraulic force from a handheld unit – sufficient for swaging sleeves on wire rope up to 8 mm diameter. The chart below compares the GT-200's capacity against manual tools and larger bench presses.

Maximum Wire Rope Diameter Capacity by Swager Type (mm)

Manual hand swager (lever type)
6 mm max
GT-200 portable hydraulic
8 mm max
GT-500 bench press (500kN)
16 mm max
Industrial floor press (1,000kN)
32 mm max

Fig. 1 – The GT-200 handles 8 mm wire rope while remaining fully portable – ideal for on-site repairs and maintenance.

The GT-200 includes 5 interchangeable die sets for sleeve diameters from 4 mm to 10 mm, stored in a rugged carrying case for easy field transport.

3. Key Feature #2: True Portability – Swage Anywhere, Anytime

The GT-200 is powered by a manual hydraulic hand pump (no electricity required), making it ideal for remote locations. A complete swaging cycle takes 15–25 seconds depending on operator experience. The chart below compares portability and setup time across different swaging methods.

Field Setup Time & Portability Comparison

Time (minutes) / Portability score Swaging method 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 Setup: 1 min 15 min 45 min GT-200 portable Bench press Floor press Portability: 10/10 Portability: 4/10 Portability: 2/10

Fig. 2 – The GT-200 requires less than 1 minute of setup time and can be operated anywhere, unlike bench or floor presses that need dedicated workspace and power.

For offshore rigging teams, the GT-200 eliminates the need to send damaged slings ashore – repairs can be completed on-site in under 2 minutes, reducing vessel downtime by an average of 4–6 hours per incident.

4. Key Feature #3: Reliable Termination Strength for Small-Diameter Ropes

Despite its compact size, the GT-200 produces terminations that retain 95–100% of rope breaking strength for diameters up to 8 mm. The chart below shows minimum pull-out force achieved for various rope diameters using GT-200 with calibrated dies.

Minimum Pull-Out Force (kN) – GT-200 Swaged Sleeves vs. MBL (7x19 galvanized rope)

Force (kN) Rope diameter (mm) 0 10 20 30 40 1.5 3 4 5 6 8 GT-200 pull-out force (≥97% of MBL)

Fig. 3 – GT-200 swaged terminations achieve 97% or higher of rope MBL for diameters up to 8 mm, meeting EN 13411-3 standards for portable swaging tools.

The GT-200 includes a built-in pressure relief valve that automatically releases at 200 kN, preventing over-swaging and ensuring consistent termination quality regardless of operator experience.

5. GT-200 Application Guide & Die Selection Matrix

The GT-200 accepts a range of die sets for different rope diameters and sleeve types. The table below provides a quick reference for common applications.

Table 1 – GT-200 die selection and recommended swaging pressure by rope diameter.
Rope Diameter (mm) Sleeve Type / Material Recommended Die Set Swaging Pressure (kN)
1.5–2.5 mm Aluminum stop sleeve GT-D4 (4 mm hex) 30–50 kN
3–4 mm Aluminum loop sleeve (Flemish eye) GT-D6 (6 mm oval) 70–100 kN
5–6 mm Aluminum / copper ferrule GT-D8 (8 mm hex) 120–160 kN
7–8 mm Double ferrule / high-strength GT-D10 (10 mm oval) 170–200 kN

All dies are made from heat-treated tool steel and are marked with size and pressure range for easy identification in the field.

6. Frequently Asked Questions About the GT-200 Steel Wire Rope Press Machine

Q1: What types of sleeves can the GT-200 swage?
A1: The GT-200 swages aluminum stop sleeves, aluminum loop sleeves (Flemish eye), copper ferrules, and stainless steel sleeves for wire rope diameters from 1.5 mm to 8 mm. It is ideal for aircraft cable, small-diameter rigging, and marine applications.

Q2: Does the GT-200 require electricity or batteries?
A2: No. The GT-200 is powered by a manual hydraulic hand pump – no electricity, batteries, or compressed air required. This makes it ideal for remote locations, offshore platforms, and emergency repairs.

Q3: How many swages can the GT-200 perform before maintenance?
A3: The GT-200 is rated for over 5,000 swaging cycles before hydraulic oil change is recommended. Die sets should be inspected every 1,000 cycles for wear. The tool carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty.

Q4: Can the GT-200 be used for overhead lifting sling terminations?
A4: Yes, when used with certified aluminum sleeves and proper die sets, GT-200 terminations meet EN 13411-3 and ASME B30.9 requirements for wire rope slings up to 8 mm diameter. Always perform a proof load test at 125% of WLL for critical lifting applications.
