Product Identity
This Loos & Co., Inc. SL11-5 wire rope oval sleeve is designed for rigging professionals and marine technicians who need a reliable stainless steel termination on 5/32 in diameter stainless wire rope. It provides a secure mechanical splice suitable for lifting applications where corrosion resistance is essential.
Standard Limits
The sleeve conforms to the MS51844 specification and is DFARS compliant, which defines its dimensional tolerances and material requirements for government and industrial procurement. It is rated for use with 5/32 in stainless steel rope only and its 47/64 in overall length fixes the splice envelope; it cannot accommodate larger diameters or different rope constructions.
Compatibility Check
Before ordering, verify that the existing wire rope measures exactly 5/32 in diameter and is stainless steel, as the sleeve is not intended for galvanised or synthetic ropes. Confirm that the 47/64 in sleeve length fits within the available space on your assembly and that the plain finish meets the project's corrosion or coating requirements.

That is the finished length of the oval sleeve after it is compressed, giving the full bearing surface for the termination.
What standard does the MS51844 marking on the sleeve represent?
MS51844 is the military specification that defines dimensions, material and testing for stainless-steel oval sleeves used in lifting applications.
