Wire rope thimbles from TECTUL are fittings used inside the cable eye to maintain a more controlled bend radius, reduce crushing and protect the wire rope against contact with shackles, hooks or anchor points. The covered series is guardacabo and the assortment reports 15 available references, with highlighted references GDC-G-1/8, GDC-G-3/16, GDC-G-1/4, GDC-G-5/16, GDC-G-3/8, GDC-G-1/2, GDC-G-5/8 and GDC-G-3/4. For wire rope terminations, EN 13411 is a useful technical reference, but the specific selection depends on wire rope diameter, material, eye type and connected fitting. This sheet differs from wire rope clips because the thimble does not clamp or secure by itself: it protects the eye shape and normally requires a clip, swage or another termination.
