Can I use these hog rings with other brands of fence pliers?

While possible, they are designed and tested for optimal performance with Rapid FP20 and FP222 Fence Pliers. Compatibility with other brands may vary.

Troubleshooting

Hog ring does not close properly

Ensure the hog ring is correctly seated in the fence plier jaws and that you are applying sufficient pressure. Check that the wire gauge is within the 5-11mm range specified.

Pliers are difficult to squeeze

Verify that you are using the correct size hog ring for your pliers and that the rings are not damaged. Check the plier mechanism for debris or damage.

Connection feels loose

Ensure the hog ring has fully closed around both the netting and tension wire. Re-apply the ring if necessary, ensuring a tighter closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the Rapid Vr22 Hog Rings, ensure you have the compatible Rapid FP20 or FP222 Fence Pliers. Load the hog rings into the pliers as per the plier's instruction manual. Position the ring around the netting wire and the tensioned support wire, then squeeze the plier handles to close the ring securely.

Compatibility: These hog rings are specifically designed for use with Rapid FP20 and FP222 Fence Pliers. Always check the size compatibility between the hog ring and your fence pliers before purchasing.
