Wire Rope Assembly Terminations & Efciencies

Wire Rope ends must be fastened to the mechanism so that force and motion are transferred efciently. End
terminations thus become items of great importance for transferring these forces. Each basic type of
termination has its own individual characteristic. Hence, one type will usually t the needs of a given installation

better than the others.
It should be noted that not all end terminations will develop the full strength of the wire rope used. To lessen the
possibility of error, the wire rope industry has determined terminal efciencies for various types of end

terminations. Holding power calculations can be made for the more popular end terminations based on efciency
factors in Table 5.

The Flemish Eye Splice is formed by opening or unlaying the rope body into two

Hand Spliced Wire Rope Slings (Loading Slings)

Sling
Hand spliced wire rope slings (commonly known as “Loading Slings”) are typically used in heavy haul
winching applications. These slings are spliced without a steel sleeve, making them ideal for use with the
roller on a large winch truck. Loading slings come with 36" eyes in order to t a large selection of
Slings
Web
equipment and are made with 6x36 EIPS wire rope for the best combination of exibility and strength.
Standard lengths for loading slings are 24', 26' and 28', customer lengths are available upon request.
Eye Size for Loading Slings is typically 36" x 10"
Round

Warning: Hand-spliced slings should not be used in lifts

where the sling may rotate and cause the wire rope to unlay.

Wire Rope Thimbles

Sling
Thimbles are used to protect steel wire rope, bre rope or synthetic rope. They are available in
various models and sizes. All indicated types of thimbles in this catalogue can be used in
combination with the above mentioned types of ropes.
Slings
Web
Thimbles must be regularly inspected in accordance with the standards given in the country of use. This is required because the products
in use may be affected by wear, misuse, overloading which may lead to deformation and/or alteration of the steel structure.
Make sure that the (wire) rope ts properly into the groove of the thimble you use. The nominal size of the thimble represents the
Round
Slings
diameter of the (wire) rope for which it is intended to be used. If there is no thimble available with a nominal size that meets the size of
your (wire) rope, the next larger size of thimble must be used.
Before use, check if the thimble is free from impurities, sharp edges, cracks or other irregularities which may damage the wire rope and
therefore affect the performance of the wire rope.

• all markings are legible;
• a wire rope clip with the correct dimensions has been selected;
• the nuts or any other locking system cannot vibrate out of

• the wire rope clip is free from nicks, gouges and cracks;
• never modify, repair or reshape a wire rope clip by machining,
