Wire Rope Compression Sleeves—For Lifting
Install with a compression tool to create a strong, permanent loop. Compression sleeves are also known as ferrules, crimps, swaging, and splicing sleeves. They're compatible with Nicopress compression tools.
18-8 stainless steel sleeves have excellent corrosion resistance to chemicals.
Warning: Fittings must match rope diameter and be installed correctly to obtain maximum holding power. Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.
