Specifications and Materials

Compatibility and Fitment

This thimble suits 6 mm wire rope or cables and works well in forming eye loops, connecting shackles, or securing terminals. It fits wire of the nominal 6 mm diameter, so ensure your rope wire diameter matches before selecting. Because it protects rope from pinching or bottleneck wear, use it wherever wire rope eyes are required.

Compliance and Safety

Using 304 stainless steel gives good resistance to corrosion in many marine and outdoor conditions. Always use the correct size thimble to avoid weakening the rope. Inspect the thimble and wire rope periodically for wear, especially in harsh environments.

Marine Applications

This thimble performs effectively in mooring systems, anchor line eyes, rigged loops, hardware terminations on board, or wherever rope meets a load or fitting. Moreover, its stainless construction helps resist rust and maintain integrity under saltwater spray.
