Wire rope kit for 1/8 inch stainless cable
This Dayton kit provides two U-bolt clips and one thimble sized for 1/8 inch stainless steel wire rope. It suits rigging, marine and general-purpose lifting tasks where corrosion resistance matters. The fittings create a secure loop termination without swaging tools.
Stainless steel construction resists corrosion
Both clips and thimble are made from stainless steel to withstand moisture and outdoor exposure. The U-bolt design allows straightforward installation with basic hand tools. No sleeves are included in this three-piece fitting set.
1/8 inch rope diameter compatibility
The kit is specified only for 1/8 inch stainless steel rope and includes a thimble with a 1 7/8 inch inside length and 1 1/4 inch inside width. Builders using larger diameters or different rope materials need separate fittings.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1/8 in U-bolt clips and thimble, and what step is often missed?
Form a 3 1/4 in turnback, place the thimble inside the loop, position both U-bolt clips over the dead end with saddles on the live rope, then tighten nuts evenly to the recommended torque.
What maintenance or replacement will the stainless steel clips and thimble need over time?
Inspect the clips for nut tightness, thread wear, and corrosion; check the thimble groove for deformation or cracking — replace any fitting that shows damage or elongation.
What limit appears first when the 1/8 in stainless steel rope assembly sees sustained load?
The 3 1/4 in turnback length and the two U-bolt clips set the practical holding capacity; slip at the clips or thimble deformation will occur before the stainless steel rope itself yields.
