These really are meant for light-duty applications only, and no load rating is assigned to these fittings. Per the mfg. specs, these are not to be swaged with a hand swager, vise, etc. Customers try, but the results are mixed and generally it's not recommended. To properly install these one should use a pneumatic or hydraulic swager with proper dies.
