Copper oval sleeve for 3/8 in wire rope
This copper oval sleeve is designed for swaging onto 3/8 inch galvanised steel wire rope. It suits strand classifications of 3 x 7, 6 x 19, 7 x 19 and 7 x 7 and is rated for lifting applications. The zinc-plated finish adds corrosion resistance for industrial and rigging use.
Compatible rope diameter 3/8 in
The single specification that determines fit is the compatible rope diameter of 3/8 inch. Only wire rope of this exact diameter should be swaged into the sleeve to meet the MS51844 standard. Using a different diameter will compromise the joint strength and safety.
Handles standard strand constructions
The sleeve comfortably accommodates common strand constructions including 3 x 7, 6 x 19, 7 x 19 and 7 x 7. It runs out when the rope diameter exceeds 3/8 inch or when strand patterns fall outside the listed classifications, requiring a different sleeve size or type.

Questions about this item
How does the 122 copper sleeve perform when swaged onto a 3/8 in galvanized steel rope in a live lift?
The oval sleeve is rated for lifting use with 3/8 in galvanized steel rope in 3x7, 6x19, 7x19 and 7x7 constructions; swaging to MS51844 creates a termination that develops the rope's rated breaking strength.
What standard governs the swage fitting and what does it limit in practice?
MS51844 defines the dimensions and test requirements for the copper oval sleeve; it caps the assembly to the rope's published breaking strength when the correct swaging tool and die are used.
What are the exact outside diameter and overall length I need to clear in my rigging hardware?
The sleeve measures 1 1/8 in outside diameter and 1 1/4 in overall length, so any thimble, shackle or fairlead must accommodate those dimensions.
