Product Details

The Chicago Brand 221252 is a heavy-duty wire rope thimble designed for 1/2 inch diameter wire rope applications. This galvanized steel thimble provides essential protection and reinforcement for wire rope loops, preventing crushing, wear, and deformation at critical connection points.

Key Features:

  • Hot-dip galvanized finish for superior corrosion resistance
  • Heavy-duty construction manufactured to Federal Specification FF-T-276b, Type III standards
  • Designed for 1/2 inch wire rope diameter
  • Made in the USA
  • Ideal for rigging, lifting, towing, and anchoring applications

Wire rope thimbles are essential hardware for creating secure, long-lasting wire rope assemblies. When installed in the loop or eye of a terminated wire rope, the thimble acts as a protective sleeve that maintains the integrity of the rope under load, extends service life, and provides a safer connection point. The galvanized coating makes this thimble suitable for outdoor, industrial, marine, and other demanding environments where durability is critical.
