Wedge Sockets
The Terminator™
“New & Improved”
Wedge Socket
-
Basket is cast steel. Individually magnetic particle inspected.
-
Pin diameter and jaw opening allows wedge and socket to be used in conjunction with open swage and spelter sockets.
-
Secures the tail or “dead end” of the wire rope to the wedge, thus eliminates loss or “Punch out” of the wedge.
-
Eliminates the need for an extra piece of rope, and is easily installed.
-
The TERMINATOR™ wedge eliminates the potential breaking off of the tail due to fatigue.
-
The tail, which is secured by the base of the clip and the wedge, is left undeformed and available for reuse.
-
Incorporates Crosby’s patented QUIC-CHECK™ “Go” and “No-Go” feature cast into the wedge. The proper size rope is determined when the following criteria are met:
1. The wire rope would pass thru the “Go” hole in the wedge.
2. The wire rope should NOT pass thru the “No-Go” hole in the wedge.
-
Utilises standard Crosby Red-U-Bolt wire rope clip.
-
Generates a minimum efficiency of 80% based on the catalogue breaking strength of the wire rope.
-
Standard S-421 wedge socket can be retrofitted with the new style terminator™ wedge.
-
Available with Bolt, Nut and Cotter Pin.
