When applied to wire rope assemblies, thin walled carbon steel ferrules will create a tough, chemically stable termination point that can combat all sorts of corrosion and physical distresses. You can order custom thin walled ferrules from Rope Services Direct, along with ferrules of other materials.
As with any metal ferrule, a thin walled unit made from carbon steel will fix the end of a wire rope in place and give you the opportunity to add an attachment or loop it back on itself if necessary.
Thin walled carbon steel ferrules are composed of two materials which complement one another very well. While aluminium ferrules are more widely used, they are not as capable when encountering high operating temperatures. They also succumb to corrosive substances and environments with greater ease. This is why carbon steel ferrules like this are necessary in certain industries.
Our carbon steel ferrules are made with an expert eye for detail and pressed with equipment that ensures a permanent, immovable fit. This helps make safe lifting achievable in any scenario and accounts for the often hostile atmospheres that wire rope assemblies have to face.
