Post Swage Checker – Standing Rigging Gauge

Coming soon - Professional Standing Rigging Gauge by The Yacht Rigger

Developed for real-world rigging shops, the Post Swage Checker is a precision stainless steel gauge designed to verify post-swage wire diameters on standing rigging with confidence.

This tool reflects the same standards used daily at The Yacht Rigger—built to catch undersized or improperly swaged terminals before they ever leave the shop or go aboard. Clearly laser-etched with both metric and imperial wire sizes, it allows fast, repeatable checks without guesswork, saving time while reinforcing safety and consistency.

Machined from durable stainless steel and finished for long-term shop use, the Post Swage Checker is compact, rugged, and ready for dockside or bench work.
