Dayton Wire Rope Thimble 7/16 in Steel Pack of 25

Dayton Wire Rope Thimble 7/16 in Steel Pack of 25

This pack supplies 25 galvanised steel thimbles sized for 7/16 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 intended for rigging, lifting and general industrial use where rope termination strength matters.

Open-end thimbles for 7/16 in rope in lifting builds

The thimbles sit inside the wire-rope loop and bear against the shackle or hook, spreading the load and preventing the rope from kinking. They require a correctly sized ferrule or splice to secure the eye around the thimble. Using them frees the rope from direct metal-on-metal contact at the termination point, extending service life in cyclic loading.

Galvanised steel resists corrosion under normal

The galvanised finish protects the steel from surface rust in outdoor and damp environments. Wall thickness of 1/16 in and a wall height of 3/16 in give a compact profile that fits standard hardware. No additional lubrication is needed during normal use; the smooth bore reduces friction on the rope strands.
