Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a soft eye and a thimble eye wire rope strop?
A soft eye is a loop formed directly in the rope, offering flexibility and easy handling. A thimble eye incorporates a metal thimble inside the loop to protect the rope from wear at the contact point, making it better suited to frequent or heavily loaded connections with shackles or hooks.
How do I choose the correct cable diameter and load capacity?
Select a strop with a working load limit greater than the maximum load you plan to handle, taking into account any safety factors specified in your lifting procedures. Then choose the cable diameter and eye type that are compatible with your existing hooks, shackles and lifting equipment.
Can these galvanised wire rope strops be used outdoors?
Yes, the galvanised finish offers enhanced resistance to rust and corrosion, making these strops suitable for many outdoor and exposed environments. Regular inspection and maintenance are still essential to ensure ongoing safety and performance.
