Round Thimble

The Round Thimble is a specialized hardware component commonly used in rigging and lifting applications to protect and guide wire ropes or cables. It is a circular or cylindrical metal insert that is installed within a loop or eyelet to prevent wear and damage to the wire rope.

Round Thimble Description

Round Thimbles are typically made from materials such as stainless steel, galvanized steel, or other high-strength alloys to ensure durability and resistance to corrosion. They are designed to withstand the high forces and stresses experienced during lifting and rigging operations.

The main function of a Round Thimble is to create a smooth and rounded surface for the wire rope to pass through, reducing friction and preventing abrasion. It helps distribute the load evenly along the wire rope, minimizing wear and extending its service life.

Round Thimbles are commonly used in industries such as marine, construction, transportation, and material handling. They are often found in applications such as cranes, hoists, winches, and lifting slings. They are available in various sizes to accommodate different wire rope diameters and load capacities.
