Wedge Sockets - to DIN 15315

Fitting

When fitting the rope to the socket as much slack as possible should be removed from the system in order to maximise the available eye bolt adjustment. The load should then be applied to the assembly and the wedge observed to seat correctly in the socket body.

A single DIN 1142 wire rope grip should then be fitted across the two parts of rope near to the socket body. This, along with the split pin fitted into the wedge, ensures that the wedge cannot become displaced in a slack rope condition.

A range of rope pulling stockings is also available for installation purposes.
