Dayton 1DKK3 Sleeve and Thimble Kit

The Dayton 1DKK3 kit provides wire rope stop sleeves and thimbles designed for use with the 1DMV3 assembly. It includes two copper sleeves and two stainless steel thimbles, giving a total of four fittings for securing rope ends in rigging applications.

Riggers terminating 3/8 in rope

This kit suits installers who need to form protected eyes on 3/8 inch copper or galvanised steel wire rope using stop sleeves and thimbles. It is not for jobs requiring wire rope clips, swage sleeves, or fittings sized for any other rope diameter.

Compatible rope diameter 3/8 in

The stop sleeves and thimbles are manufactured specifically for 3/8 inch rope, so the diameter match is the single specification that determines whether this kit fits the intended wire.

Questions about this item

Does the stainless steel thimble resist corrosion when the kit is used outdoors all day?

The two thimbles are stainless steel, which resists rust and corrosion during extended outdoor exposure.

What rope diameter must I already have for the copper sleeves to crimp correctly?

The kit is designed for 3/8 in diameter rope, so you need that exact size for a proper crimp.

Will the 2 3/8 in thimble loop fit around the shackle pins on my existing rigging hardware?

The thimble loop inside length is 2 3/8 in and width is 1 1/2 in; check your shackle pin clearance against those dimensions.
