Details of Frame wire crimper PRO

Wire-crimping pliers for adjusting the slack in the wire on frames. Its two toothed rollers grip the wire and, as they move, create a regular wave pattern. This design utilises part of the slack and leaves the section tighter to hold the wax foundation in place before it is embedded.

⚙️ Tensions by creating a wave, not by stretching

The tool does not pull on the anchors or lengthen the wire. The toothed rollers transform a straight section with slight slack into a succession of waves. This is why it works best on a frame that has already been squared up, wired and anchored, with the entire wire pre-adjusted by hand.

🛠️ Work sequence

Check the squareness, the eyelets and the anchor points. Replace the wire if it is broken, heavily rusted or marked.
Place both rollers on the first section and close the pliers just enough for them to engage without crushing the wire.
Move from one end to the other applying constant pressure. Do not pause at any one point, as this will result in uneven corrugation.
Work on the alternating sections and check the square again before embedding the wax.

⚠️ Too much tension will also damage the frame

If the side bars start to bend, the anchors shift or the wire leaves a deep mark in the wood, stop. The aim is to eliminate loose vibration, not to turn each section into a rigid cord. The result depends on the wire’s diameter and hardness, the spacing between passes, and the strength of the frame.

After finishing the job, remove dust and wax residue from the rollers and store the pliers in a dry place. Check that both toothed rollers rotate freely before starting another batch; a seized roller will drag the wire rather than crimping it evenly.
