About Sling Configurations and Capacity

Use one of these thimbles to support a wire rope loop and prevent it from fraying. They are also known as thin pattern thimbles.

Zinc-plated steel thimbles are mildly corrosion resistant.

Warning: Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.

Heavy Duty Wire Rope Thimbles—For Lifting

Also known as heavy-pattern thimbles, these can be used to reinforce the loop of a sling in accordance with ASME B30.9.

Galvanized steel thimbles have a thick coating for corrosion resistance.

Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.

Wire Rope Clamp and Thimble Kits—Not for Lifting

Clamp

Thimble

Kits include clamps and thimbles to protect the inside of wire rope loops from fraying. Clamps must be oriented with the saddle on the long (live) end and U-bolt on the short (dead) end.

Galvanized steel and iron clamps and thimbles are corrosion resistant.

Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.

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.

Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.

Wire Rope Slings


Crimped and Reinforced Thimble Eye	Basket

These slings are more abrasion and cut resistant than web and round slings, yet lighter in weight than mesh and chain slings. They include a tag that shows capacities in each configuration.

Crimped and reinforced thimble eye slings have a thimble on the inside of the loops to prevent fraying. Loops are secured with a metal sleeve.

6 × 19 construction is more flexible than 7 × 7.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Wire Rope Slings with Hooks

For use with loads that have lift attachments, these slings attach quickly and securely. They are more abrasion and cut resistant than web and round slings, yet lighter in weight than mesh and chain slings. They include a tag that shows capacities in each configuration.

Note: Do not use multi-leg slings at an angle less than 30°.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
