Description
Galvanized Iron Wire Rope Thimble for Metal Cable, Rigging & Lifting
The GI Wire Rope Thimble is a durable cable protection fitting designed to maintain the shape and strength of wire rope loops while preventing wear, crushing, and abrasion caused by hooks, shackles, and fasteners. Manufactured from galvanized iron (GI), these thimbles provide excellent corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance in rigging, lifting, marine, industrial, and outdoor applications.
The thimble fits inside the eye loop of a wire rope or steel cable, helping distribute load evenly and extending the service life of the cable assembly. These are commonly used together with wire rope clamps, ferrules, shackles, and turnbuckles in lifting and fastening systems.
The galvanized finish protects against rust and environmental damage, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor usage.
