The two-piece wedges are rifled to providemore gripping surface on the wire ropestr<strong>and</strong>s for greater holding power.IMPORTANT: Wedge-type ferrules are intendedonly for use with new 6x19 or 6x37 Class, rightregular lay, EIP, IWRC or FC wire rope made toU.S. specifications.! WARNINGStr<strong>and</strong>s should projectabove the wedge about1/4" & should not finishbelow the end of thewedge.Wedge type ferrules donot develop 100% holdingpower (efficiency).

Plugselection made at the factory on receipt of yourorder specifying rope construction. There is alsoa chart in this catalog of the most common wirerope plugs. As a guide, here is a listing of someof the common rope constructions:<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong>6 x 19, 8 x 19, etc.Independent <strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong> Core (IWRC) or HempCenter (HC), Fiber Center (FC)Synthetic <strong>Rope</strong>Braided (single or double) Plaited or threestr<strong>and</strong>, Jacketed, <strong>and</strong> ContrahelicalElectro-Mechanical (Conductor Core)Armor wire diametersCore diameterRIGHTThis givescorrectdiameterWRONGThis givesincorrectdiameterTHREESpecify Material<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong> • IPS, EIP, EEIP, etc.Synthetic <strong>Rope</strong> Nylon, Polyester, Fiberglass,Keviar, Technora, etc.FOURMachined vs. Forged <strong>Fittings</strong>St<strong>and</strong>ard forged-steel clevis <strong>and</strong> oval eye fittingsare used where extra strength is required. Ratedat 2 times the rated breaking strength of I.P.rope, these fittings are available unplated or galvanized.Other steel forged fittings are ratedhigher than I.P. rope.Forging tolerances may vary slightly fromdimensions listed in this catalog. Please contactthe factory for dimensions requiring close tolerances.Machined fittings, available in carbon steel,stainless, aluminum <strong>and</strong> bronze, are rated at 1.3times the rated breaking strength of the I.P. rope<strong>and</strong> provide finer adjustment, better aesthetics<strong>and</strong> corrosion resistance.NOTE: Stainless, with its lower yield strength,may deform at lower loads than steel fittings.FIVEPlatingSteel fittings are manufactured with a variety offinishes. It is important to specify the finishdesired by means of the suffix or last letter ofthe part number.For example:N • Natural finish, no platingV • Zinc electroplatedX • Hot dipped galvanizedNOTE: All sleeves will be zinc electroplatedwhere the assembly plating is specified "X".3-8WWW.HANESSUPPLY.COM
