OPEN SWAGE SOCKET

Swaged sockets are pressed onto wire rope using special dies. These type of sockets are fatigue and breakage resistant at 100% of the rope’s breaking strength when applied with the proper sized dies. Swaged sockets are not recommended for fiber core or lang lay wire ropes. An open swage socket has a bolt or pin which cab attach to rigging such as a hook block.
