Most Sizes now incorporate the
"TERMINATOR"TM design.
|
-
Basket is cast steel.
-
Wedge socket terminations have an efficiency rating of 80% based on the catalog
strength of XXIP wire rope.
-
Wedges are color coded for
easy identification.
-
Blue - largest wire line size
for socket.
-
Black - mid size wire line
for socket.
-
7/16" on US4
-
9/16" on US5
-
Orange - smallest wire line
size for socket.
-
Cast into each
wedge is the model number of the socket and the wire line size for which the
wedge is to be used.
-
Cast into each socket is the
name "McKissick", "Crosby" or "CG", its model number and its wire line range.
-
By simply changing out the wedge, each socket can be utilized for various wire
line sizes (Ensure correct wedge is used for wire rope size).
-
Load pin is forged and headed
on one end.
-
US-422 wedge sockets contain
a hammer pad (lip) to assist in proper securement of termination.
-
Crosby products meet or exceed all the
requirements of ASME B30.26 including identification, ductility, design factor,
proof load and temperature requirements. Importantly, Crosby products
meet other critical performance requirements including fatigue life, impact
properties and material traceability, not addressed by ASME B20.26.
-
UWO-422 Wedges are to be used
only with the
US-422 Wedge Socket Assemblies.
