Ring Eyes

Muncy™ USA Ring Eyes

Muncy's Ring Eyes are used by inserting wire rope into the shank and swaging the Ring Eye. Our Ring Eyes are Made In USA and forged. We can also make special Ring Eyes to your specifications and special dimensions. Where Ring Eyes are a great way to terminate wire rope in a similar fashion to a closed swage socket, Ring Eyes are not rated to break the rope and should not be used in lifting unless they are tested with the rope to prove the adequacy of the assembly.
