Wire rope end fittings are components attached to the ends of a wire rope to facilitate its connection to other equipment or structures. They are designed to secure, terminate, or reinforce the ends of the wire rope and steel cable, allowing it to perform specific tasks. These fittings ensure reliable load distribution and maintain the integrity of the rope system. Whether used in lifting, rigging, structural applications, or industrial settings, end fittings play a crucial role in optimizing performance and safety.
