Aluminum Fiber Rope Sleeves | Muncy Industries
Newco Aluminum Fiber Rope Sleeves
Muncy's Newco aluminum Fiber Rope sleeves are made specifically for fiber ropes, as opposed to steel wire rope. The fiber ropes include polyester, nylon, blends of the nylon and polyester, polypropylene ropes. The sleeves are made to be crimped, or "swaged" onto the ropes to terminate the rope with an eye.
Special material for Aluminum Sleeves
Muncy uses special aluminum made to withstand both the compression in the swaging process along with the strength for the application. Our consistent quality is rooted in our stringent requirements for raw material and control of our internal processes.

CAUTION
Proper swaging practices are the assembly manufacturers responsibility. The assembly must be properly swaged to attain expected strength of the return eye splice of the wire rope. Testing is recommended to prove the adequacy of the assembly in the intended application.
