Dayton 2VKL5 wire rope thimble 1/2 in steel pack 25

This pack supplies 25 galvanised steel thimbles sized for 1/2 in wire rope. Each thimble protects the rope eye from wear and deformation under load. The open-end design allows quick installation on existing assemblies. They are rated for lifting applications where a thimble is required.

Suited for riggers and maintenance teams forming

These thimbles match 1/2 in diameter rope and provide a galvanised finish for corrosion resistance. Buyers needing a different rope diameter or a stainless steel finish should look at other options. The pack quantity is fixed at 25 pieces.

Package quantity 25 pieces

The pack contains exactly 25 thimbles, which determines how many eyes can be formed per order. Order additional packs if the project requires more than 25 eyes. No smaller or larger pack sizes are offered for this model.

Questions about this item

What rope diameter must I already have for these thimbles to fit?

They are made for 1/2 in compatible rope diameter, so the rope you own should match that size.

Will the 1 3/16 in loop inside width accept the shackle or hook I already use?

The loop inside width is 1 3/16 in and the loop inside length is 1 7/8 in; check your shackle or hook dimensions against those openings.

How can I confirm the thimbles are seated correctly after installation?

After fitting, the rope should sit fully in the 11/16 in inside wall width with the 3/16 in wall height supporting the bend and the galvanized finish showing no deformation.
