We offer a complete product range of Open Swage Sockets and Closed Swage Sockets

Open Swage Sockets

Inner Diameter 1/4" to 1-1/2”

Lexco Cable offers open swage sockets in both carbon steel and stainless steel material. Plating and galvanizing for carbon steel swage sockets is available upon request. Our open swage sockets are available in various standard sizes to accommodate cable from 14" to 1-12 in diameter. Clevis pins are typically included with all models. Open swage sockets are extremely similar to forkjaw ends. However, open swage sockets have larger dimensions, most notably their clevis diameters, inside widths, and depths below pin. Additionally, open swage sockets are made from forgings, while forkjaw ends are either cast or machined. Open swage sockets must be machine swaged for proper hold strength. Please contact a Lexco sales representative to receive an assembly quote.

Closed Swage Sockets

Inner Diameter 1/4" to 3”

When installed onto general purpose wire rope, closed swage sockets offer up to five times longer life than spelter sockets. An independent research study has proven that swaged sockets have superior fatigue life than other commonly used types of boom pendants. End fittings for large diameter wire ropes and strand are typically referred to as sockets. The word closed here indicates that there is an eye shape at the end of the fitting. Lexco Cable offers closed swage sockets in carbon steel or stainless steel construction. Plating and galvanizing of carbon steel closed swage sockets is available upon request. Our closed swage sockets are available in various sizes to accommodate cable from 14" to 3 in diameter.
