HYW hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope thimbles protect the eye of a wire rope or cable where it bends around a loop, shielding it from abrasion, crushing, and fatigue. Made from hot-dip galvanized steel that resists rust and weathering for long outdoor service, each thimble cradles the rope to preserve strength and extend service life. Choose your wire rope size from the drop-down menu.
