Abstract
A swaging tool includes a generally tubular housing having a first end portion including a port for providing pressurized fluid, a second end portion defining a closed cylinder and an intermediate portion therebetween that includes an elongated aperture through an outer surface of the housing. A single-piece piston is movably located within the housing, and axially extends through the intermediate housing portion such that at least a portion of the piston is visible through the aperture. A fixed jaw unit is located on the second end portion of the housing and a movable jaw unit is removably engageable directly to the piston through the aperture.
