We use Heavy Duty thimbles with all UNI-LOC® wire rope slings. They withstand the working load conditions of the slings but when severely overloaded they will noticeably stretch. Note that you can not feed this thimble through an identical one to make a choker hitch (use Slip-Through Thimbles)



Thimble dimensions may vary slightly. If critical ask for details.
