Poured Sockets

Open Spelter Sockets

  • Forged Steel Sockets through 1-1/2”, cast alloy steel 1-5/8” through 4”.
  • Spelter socket terminations have an efficiency rating of 100%, based on the catalog strength of wire rope.
  • Ratings are based on the recommended use with 6 x 7, 6 x 19 or 6 x 37, IPS or XIP (EIP) , XXIP (EEIP), RRL, FC or IWRC wire rope.
  • Strand constructed with minimal number of wires (e.g. 1 x 7) requires special consideration that socket basket length be five (5) times the strand diameter or fifty (50) times the wire diamete , whichever is the greater.
