The H-Lift K2-B Heavy Duty Stub-end Thimble with Gusset is a reinforced wire rope fitting specifically engineered for high-stress rigging environments where extreme tension could cause a standard thimble to collapse.
The K2-B Reinforced Heavy Duty Stub-End Thimble represents the pinnacle of cable eye protection. Designed for extreme industrial loads, it features a precision-welded internal steel gusset plate that prevents the thimble from crushing or collapsing, even when wire rope tension approaches its breaking point. It is the mandatory choice for offshore oil and gas rigging, heavy construction towing, and mining operations.
The center of the eye is braced with a structurally welded steel gusset. This creates a rigid internal bridge that ensures the thimble cannot deform or "pinch" the wire rope under near-limit tensile stress.
The shorter, more open throat profile of the stub-end design allows for seamless integration with thick anchor pins and specialized connectors that typically would not fit into a standard narrow teardrop eye.
Manufactured from high-tensile forged steel and hot-dip galvanized. This provides a deep, protective zinc barrier essential for long-term survival in saltwater and harsh outdoor worksites.
Acts as a structural guard, ensuring the wire rope eye maintains its critical geometric shape. This prevents strand damage and preserves the full calculated breaking strength of your cable assembly.
Note: Dimension G indicates the thickness of the internal gusset plate.
