Swaging

Index Swaging

Swaging is a forging process in which the dimensions of an item are altered using dies into which the item is forced. [1]

Bassoon

The bassoon is a woodwind instrument in the double reed family that typically plays music written in the bass and tenor clefs, and occasionally the treble.

Blacksmith

A blacksmith is a metalsmith who creates objects from wrought iron or steel by forging the metal, using tools to hammer, bend, and cut (cf. whitesmith).

Bolt (fastener)

A bolt is a form of threaded fastener with an external male thread.

Bullet

A bullet is a kinetic projectile and the component of firearm ammunition that is expelled from the gun barrel during shooting.

Cast bullet

A cast bullet is made by allowing molten metal to solidify in a mold.

New!!: Swaging and Cast bullet · See more »

Casting (metalworking)

In metalworking and jewellery making, casting is a process in which a liquid metal is somehow delivered into a mold (it is usually delivered by a crucible) that contains a hollow shape (i.e., a 3-dimensional negative image) of the intended shape.

Clarinet

The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group known as the woodwind instruments.

Crimp (joining)

Crimping is joining two or more pieces of metal or other ductile material by deforming one or both of them to hold the other.

Draw bench

A draw bench is a machine used to do cold work on a metal, such as changing the shape of the metal without applying heat and applying only pressure.

Extrusion

Extrusion is a process used to create objects of a fixed cross-sectional profile.

New!!: Swaging and Extrusion · See more »

Firearm

A firearm is a portable gun (a barreled ranged weapon) that inflicts damage on targets by launching one or more projectiles driven by rapidly expanding high-pressure gas produced by exothermic combustion (deflagration) of propellant within an ammunition cartridge.

New!!: Swaging and Firearm · See more »

Flare fitting

Flare fittings are a type of compression fitting used with metal tubing, usually soft steel, ductile (soft) copper and aluminum, though other materials are also used. Tube flaring is considered to be a type of forging operation, and is usually a cold working procedure. During assembly, a flare nut is used to secure the flared tubing's tapered end to the also tapered fitting, producing a pressure-resistant, leak-tight seal. Flared connections offer a high degree of long-term reliability and for this reason are often used in mission-critical and inaccessible locations.

Flute

The flute is a family of musical instruments in the woodwind group.

Forging

Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces.

Fuller (weapon)

A fuller is a rounded or beveled longitudinal groove or slot along the flat side of a blade (e.g. a sword, knife, or bayonet) that is made using a blacksmithing tool called a spring swage or, like the groove, a fuller.

Handloading

Handloading or reloading is the process of loading firearm cartridges or shotgun shells by assembling the individual components (case/hull, primer, powder, and bullet/shot), rather than purchasing completely assembled, factory-loaded ammunition.
