Swage, Oval Sleeve (Copper, Aluminum)
| |
|
Copper, Zinc Plated Copper, or AluminumOval sleeves are an ideal way for making a neat, strong eye splice in a matter of seconds without frayed cable ends (use a stainless thimble). For eye splices, one stainless oval sleeve will hold full rated cable strength on 7 x 7 or 7 x 19 cable. On 1 x 19 we recommend using two stainless oval sleeves on each end to hold full rated strength (see product #S0750). The copper sleeves hold almost at full cable strength; to be conservative estimate about 80%. Again, use 2 sleeves on 1 x 19 wire. Aluminum swage sleeves will only hold about one half the cable strength – Don’t use in the marine environment. Crimping of sleeve must be done with a oval swage sleeve tool or the “Swage-It” tool, to insure maximum holding power. We also carry stainless steel sleeves (stainless is not for hand swaging). The copper stop sleeves (not shown) are for designed for the end of the wire rope (single wire inserted) and provide a stop when crimped on.Note: To crimp these you will need the proper tools. See: SWAGING TOOL or SWAGE-IT in the Tool Section. "Size" refers to the wire rope size you wish to swage. Price each. Additional info on swaging can be found on our KNOWLEDGE page or click here.
