Wire Rope Thimbles

Medium Duty Wire Rope Thimbles—Not for Lifting

Also known as standard-pattern thimbles, these provide better protection against fraying than light duty thimbles.

Light Duty Wire Rope Thimbles—Not for Lifting

These thimbles are also known as thin pattern thimbles.

Heavy Duty Wire Rope Thimbles—For Lifting

Also known as heavy-pattern thimbles, these can be used to reinforce the loop of a sling.

Closed-End Light Duty Wire
Rope Thimbles—Not for Lifting

Smooth rounded edges and an endless design prevent snags.

Open-End Light Duty Wire
Rope Thimbles—Not for Lifting

The open-end design leaves more room for connections than other thimbles.

Wire Rope Compression Sleeves

Wire Rope Compression Sleeves—For Lifting

These compression sleeves are designed to meet lifting specifications.

Wire Rope Compression Sleeve
and Thimble Kits—Not for Lifting

These kits include two compression sleeves paired with two thimbles. The thimbles support the wire rope loops and prevent it from fraying.

Wire Rope Compression Sleeves—Not for Lifting

Use these sleeves for non-lifting applications such as tethering, securing, and suspending.

Wire Rope Compression Sleeve
Assortments—Not for Lifting

Keep multiple sleeves on hand in a variety of sizes.

Wire Rope Clamps

Easy-Install Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

Make a removable loop without specialty tools for use in noncritical applications, such as fencing. Also known as tiller clamps.

Crosby Forged Single-Saddle Wire
Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

These clamps must be oriented with the saddle on the long (live) end and the U-bolt on the short (dead) end. They’re also known as wire rope clips.

Forged One-Piece Wire
Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

Install these clamps without any specific orientation, slide the nut over the rope and tighten it onto the threaded halves with a torque wrench.

Forged Stainless Steel Single-Saddle
Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

These clamps have a forged fabrication and are reliable in critical applications. They are not for making slings. These must be oriented with the saddle on the long (live) end and U-bolt on the short (dead) end. They’re also known as wire rope clips.

Wire Rope Clamp and Thimble Kits—Not for Lifting

Kits include clamps and thimbles to support a wire rope loop and prevent it from fraying. Clamps must be oriented with the saddle on the long (live) end and U-bolt on the short (dead) end.

Cast Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

Use in noncritical applications, such as fencing, where the strength of a forged clamp is not required. Install clamps so the saddle is on the long (live) end and the U-bolt is on the short (dead) end. They’re also known as wire rope clips.

Wire Rope Clamps with Thimbles—Not for Lifting

A clamp and thimble in one convenient fitting simplifies installation while providing support and fray protection to the wire rope loop. Use a torque wrench to tighten the clamp.

Quick-Adjust Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

Create a loop by feeding the wire rope through the clamp and tighten the set screw to secure it in place. Loosen the set screw to quickly adjust the loop. Also known as Gripple rope clamps. They are for use in noncritical applications, such as fencing.
