Cable Fixing Ring (8 mm)

Cable Thimble TRO-5080 is a stainless steel protective thimble designed to reinforce and protect 8 mm stainless steel cable loops against wear. It is commonly used in cable railing systems and other wire rope applications where a durable and secure cable loop termination is required.

Manufactured from AISI 316 stainless steel, the thimble provides excellent corrosion resistance and is suitable for indoor, outdoor and marine environments.

Using a cable thimble reduces friction, protects the cable strands from deformation and significantly extends the service life of the entire cable assembly.
