Apex Tools Group Llc T7670619 Wire Rope Thimble 3/16 in

Product Description

The APEX TOOLS GROUP LLC T7670619 is a 3/16-inch wire rope thimble with an electro galvanized finish. Thimbles protect the eye of a wire rope splice from abrasion and deformation at the loop, extending service life where cables attach to shackles, hooks, or anchors. This hardware is supplied in bulk pack quantities of 10 units per package. Riggers, marine technicians, and general contractors routinely specify thimbles as standard hardware when fabricating wire rope assemblies for lifting, tensioning, or tie-down applications.

This thimble is suited for use in rigging, cable railing, mooring, and general wire rope termination work where a 3/16-inch rope diameter is specified. The electro galvanized coating provides a base level of corrosion resistance appropriate for light-duty outdoor or industrial environments. It is commonly installed as part of swaged or hand-spliced wire rope end terminations on construction sites, marine docks, and utility applications.

Key Features

• Fits 3/16-inch wire rope diameter
• Electro galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• Grooved channel seats the rope and maintains loop geometry under load
• Bulk pack of 10 units per package
• Lightweight at 0.22 pounds per package

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation thimble for 3/16-inch wire rope assemblies used in general rigging, cable termination, and tie-down applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by riggers or qualified tradespeople familiar with wire rope termination practices. Before servicing an existing assembly, relieve all tension and secure the load. Thimbles should be seated fully within the rope loop before applying a swage fitting or clip, and wire rope clips should be installed per applicable ASME B30 or manufacturer torque guidelines using the correct clip size for the rope diameter.
