The
name
Tuf-Grip says it all.
Tuf-Grip fittings are securely
attached to the wire rope by "clamping
forces" that grip the rope and allow the
tensile load to be transferred into the fitting.
That in turn allows the load to be transferred
to the point of attachment on your machine or
equipment. The result: an effective transfer
of tensile forces from the rope through the
fitting and into the point of attachment. We
can design the fitting to accommodate an almost
infinite number of variations, ranging from
simple and flat (button ferrules, for example)
to curved (such as pin eyes) to more complex
shapes (internally threaded designs, among others).
All of our designs give you the advantages of
required strength and they conform with mating
parts at minimal cost.
No one has
tougher specifications than you, and Tuf-Grip
meets those specifications. Just tell us your
exact specs, and we'll design and produce the
Tuf-Grip wire rope assemblies
that fit your application. We know your needs
are unique, so that's why over 70 percent of our
