Various Styles of Wire Rope Thimbles
- Light/Standard Duty
We provide multi-packs of our assortment of zinc-plated standard and light-duty thimbles.
- Heavy Duty
Similar to light or standard-duty thimbles, heavy-duty wire rope thimbles also have zinc plating. They are stronger than regular or light-duty variants because they have a hot-dip galvanized coating that is thicker.
- Light Duty/Regular 316
The standard 316 thimbles are offered in multipacks. For extreme moisture or corrosive situations, notably in maritime applications, they do provide a 316 stainless steel material.
- 304 Type
A Type 304 indicator that is made of stainless steel gives resistance to surface corrosion.
- 316 Heavy Duty
Strong applications in marine conditions benefit greatly from the combination of a corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel and a heavy-duty design.
- 304 Heavy Duty
For common heavy-duty uses where the thimble must withstand the elements, heavy-grade 304 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance.
- 304 Extra Heavy Duty
Although they don’t give type 316 stainless steel’s level of corrosion resistance, these wire rope thimbles have the greatest strength.
