Thimbles, Sockets & Ferrules

We stock and supply steel wire rope sling components:

FerrulesĀ are used to secure the loop in a steel wire rope sling, forming the eye.

ThimblesĀ are inserted into wire rope loops to help form the eye, providing extra protection against wear, abrasion, and deformation. This extends the lifespan of the wire rope or sling.

Sockets serve as terminations for wire rope slings, commonly used in permanent installations such as power line towers, cell towers, and within the mining industry.
