Description
Wire Rope Thimble 8.0mm reinforce and structure the end loop of a stainless steel wire (or rope) run. The structured loop is secured with a swaged ferrule. This distributes the force of the bearing point is evenly along the length of the thimble. Distributed force minimizes wear, stretch, on the wire cable. A Thimble works with hydraulically and mechanically pressed ferrules. Our wire rope thimbles are AISI 316 grade stainless steel.
Usage: The Wire Rope Thimble 8.0mm G316 Stainless Steel does not terminate wire. Firstly, insert the end of a length of wire through one side of a swage. Secondly, loop the wire around the thimble. Finally, thread the end of the wire back through the swage. Best practice for maximum strength requires wire extended past the swage. As a result, the length of the extended wire must be 3 times the diameter of the wire. Consequently, the swage and thimble secure with a manual or hydraulic crimping tool. The ‘loop’ fastens to the anchor point already secured to the posts or uprights that form the frame or area that will contain the wire. A larger thimble can be used with a small diameter wire to afford protection or form a larger loop. And this works if there is adequate clearance.
Quality: All Low Cost Wire products meet our strict ISO Quality Standards. As well, they are all made with AISI Marine Grade stainless steel. Firstly, our products achieve the optimal balance between high tensile strength, fatigue resistance, abrasion resistance, and structural stability. Secondly, that long experience with design and manufacturing enables the specification and production of aesthetically beautiful and functional products. Finally, our products have a special electro polished treatment for bright and smooth surface of wire and cable to deliver a truly top-shelf, long lasting product that will look new for ages…
