British Standard open socket – handy and versatile
From small domestic projects right up to large heavy duty applications in the marine, construction and engineering industries, British Standard open sockets are extremely versatile and easy to use with all sorts of wire rope. Ideal for jobs in homes, gardens, children’s playgrounds, yachts, boats and sporting projects, both body and pin are made from high tensile steel. They can be supplied in self colour or a hot dipped galvanized for long-lasting protection. The tolerances are as specified in the B.S. 463 and incorporates drop forged allowances as detailed in BS1718.
