Hog rings Rapid Tools 40108807, green plastic-coated, 1100 pcs pack

Rapid Tools hog rings 40108807 are green plastic-coated fastening rings supplied in a pack of 1,100 pieces. Made from galvanized steel with a polymer coating, these hog rings are designed for use with plier-type hog ring tools to join, clamp or fix wire, fencing, upholstery and similar materials. The green coating provides corrosion resistance and a finished appearance suitable for visible outdoor and indoor applications.

Advantages

These hog rings combine the strength of galvanized steel with a polymer coating that helps resist rust and abrasion. Supplied in a large pack of 1,100 pieces, they reduce the need for frequent reordering on jobs that require many fasteners. The green plastic coating also improves the visual integration with garden fencing and outdoor repairs while minimizing metal-to-metal contact that can cause wear.

Suitable for

• Repairing and installing garden and perimeter fencing
• Attaching wire mesh and poultry netting
• Upholstery fastening and re-attaching springs or fabric
• Securing cable bundles or joining metal wire components

When it may not be suitable

These rings are intended for use with compatible plier-style hog ring tools; they are not suitable for installation by hand without a tool. The plastic coating provides additional protection but does not make the rings completely impervious to long-term, aggressive chemical exposure or mechanical abrasion in very harsh environments.

Key specifications

• Material: galvanized steel core with green polymer coating
• Coating: green plastic for corrosion resistance and improved appearance
• Pack quantity: 1,100 pieces
• Intended tool type: plier-style hog ring tools

How to use

Choose a plier-style hog ring tool compatible with the ring shape and size. Position the ring around the items to be joined (wire, mesh or fabric) and place the ring in the tool jaws. Squeeze the tool handles evenly to close the ring securely around the materials. Inspect each fastening to ensure the ring is fully closed and the joint is stable. For outdoor installations, periodically check for coating wear and re-apply protective measures if needed.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility between the hog ring size and your plier-style installation tool
• Verify the green coating and galvanized core meet the environmental exposure requirements for your project
• Consider pack size of 1,100 pieces relative to the scope of your work to avoid excess or shortage

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when installing hog rings. For best results, select a hog ring tool rated for the ring gauge and practice on scrap material to achieve uniform closures and secure joints.
