SPELTER SOCKETS
Lexco® Cable offers spelter fittings for wire rope and aircraft cable end terminations. Our spelter sockets are manufactured using superior resins to ensure a sturdy, reliable hold. Due to the impracticality of field application, our spelter fittings are sold almost exclusively as part of a larger wire rope or cable assembly—please speak to your Lexco sales representative for more information.
Please specify if you require your spelter socket assembly to be proof-loaded. Proof-loading spelter sockets is recommended for critical applications such as overhead lifting and structural.
Various spelter socket sizes and styles are available for a range of applications.
Spelter sockets are wire rope end fittings used to create strong, permanent terminations for wire rope and aircraft cable assemblies. These fittings are commonly used in demanding applications where a reliable socketed cable end is needed, including lifting, structural, bridge, industrial, and anchoring applications.
Lexco Cable offers open strand spelter sockets, open bridge spelter sockets, closed strand spelter sockets, closed bridge spelter sockets, and Type 6, Type 7, and Type 8 anchor sockets. Lexco’s spelter socket assemblies are manufactured using high-quality resins to help create a sturdy, reliable hold. Because field application is often impractical, spelter fittings are typically supplied as part of a larger custom wire rope or cable assembly. Proof-loading is also available and recommended for critical applications such as overhead lifting and structural use.
