Description
Key Features
- Complies with AS1138: Manufactured to meet the requirements of AS1138, providing a suitable wire rope fitting for lifting and rigging applications.
- Galvanised finish: The galvanised construction provides added protection against corrosion and helps the thimble withstand demanding working environments.
- Protects wire rope eyes: Thimbles support and reinforce the formed eye of a wire rope, helping minimise deformation and wear where the rope connects to lifting hardware.
- Available in multiple sizes: Available in sizes from 6 mm to 32 mm, allowing the appropriate thimble to be selected according to the wire rope diameter and application requirements.
- Designed for lifting applications: Built for use within wire rope assemblies where reliable eye protection and support are required.
Applications:
Thimbles AS1138 are commonly used in:
- Crane and lifting operations
- Wire rope slings
- General rigging applications
- Construction and infrastructure projects
- Mining and industrial operations
- Marine and offshore applications
- Material handling equipment
- Lifting and hoisting systems
- Wire rope assemblies
- General-purpose lifting applications
Note: Thimbles must be correctly matched to the wire rope size and incorporated into the wire rope assembly in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable Australian Standards. Wire rope assemblies and associated fittings should be regularly inspected for wear, deformation, corrosion and other signs of damage.
