DIN6899A Wire Rope Accessories SS316 Thimble

The ferrule should be selected according to the wire rope diameter: the inner diameter of the ferrule should be 0.5-1mm larger than the wire rope diameter to ensure that the rope can be inserted smoothly and fit tightly. If the gap is too large, it will easily cause the rope to shake and wear, and if it is too small, it cannot be installed. For example, a 12mm wire rope needs to be matched with a ferrule with an inner diameter of 12.5-13mm.

If the use environment is inland areas, dry workshops or ordinary outdoor (no salt, chemicals), choose 304 stainless steel; if it is in contact with seawater, acid and alkali at the seaside, ports, chemical plants, etc., 316 stainless steel must be selected, otherwise rust may occur within 6 months.

No. Deformation will cause the inner wall and the wire rope to not fit tightly, increase local friction, and reduce the load-bearing capacity by more than 50%, which may cause the rope to break. Even if there is a slight deformation (such as the opening expands by more than 1mm), it must be replaced immediately and cannot be used at random.

For carbon steel thimbles, the common surface treatments are electro-galvanization and hot-dip galvanization. Electro-galvanization creates a thin zinc coating on the surface, which provides a basic level of corrosion protection. Hot-dip galvanization, on the other hand, results in a thicker and more durable zinc coating. This not only offers enhanced corrosion resistance but also makes the thimble suitable for more demanding outdoor or industrial applications. For stainless steel thimbles, they

The lead time depends on several factors, such as the quantity you order and whether it is a standard or customized product. For standard products in normal quantities (up to 50,000 pieces), the lead time is usually around 20 days. However, if you order a large quantity (50,000+ pieces), the lead time may need to be negotiated based on our production capacity and current order schedule. For customized products, the lead time may be longer as it involves additional processes such as design approv
