Talurit® Swaging Systems
K – Aluminium Turnback Ferrule
The K Ferrule (Konit™) is a high-performance aluminium ferrule designed to meet the stringent requirements of the Talurit® splicing system. Made from a specially designed profile, the K Ferrule becomes smaller in diameter after pressing compared to the T Ferrule, providing a more compact and efficient solution. Available in sizes from 09 to 90, these ferrules are produced from seamless extrusions of aluminium alloy EN AW-5051A, ensuring superior strength and durability.
The K Aluminium Ferrule (Konit™) is ideal for a variety of basic applications, particularly with bright or galvanized single-layer steel wire ropes with round strands up to a fill factor of 0.60 and grade 1960. It is suitable for both Ordinary and Lang lay types of rope. For fibre core wire ropes larger than 60 mm, the maximum applicable rope grade is 1770. These wire ropes should conform to EN 12385-4 and 5 standards.
Key features:
- Compact design: The K Ferrule becomes smaller in diameter after pressing than the T Ferrule, making it a space-efficient option.
- High-quality material: Manufactured from seamless extrusions of Aluminium alloy EN AW-5051A according to EN 573-3 standards, ensuring robust performance and longevity.
- Validated performance: Meets Talurit® splicing system requirements, guaranteeing reliable and consistent results.
- Wide range of sizes: Available from stock in sizes ranging from 09 to 90, offering versatility for various applications.
Important considerations: The K Ferrule, along with the UM Ferrule, offers an economical alternative to the T Ferrule for wire rope grades up to and including 1960. Due to its compact size after pressing, it is essential to select the appropriate ferrule size and perform verifying tests to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Applications include:
- Basic applications involving bright or galvanized single-layer steel wire ropes
- Use with wire ropes featuring round strands up to a fill factor of 0.60 and grade 1960
- Suitable for both Ordinary and Lang lay types of rope
- Fibre core wire ropes up to a maximum grade of 1770 for sizes larger than 60 mm

Premium ferrules & fittings for mechanical splicing of wire rope
When it comes to wire rope assemblies, ferrules and fittings play a crucial role in ensuring the integrity and strength of the system as a whole.
Ferrules are metal sleeves used to terminate wire ropes by crimping or swaging them onto the rope. These sleeves are typically made of materials like aluminum, copper, or stainless steel, chosen for their durability and corrosion resistance. Fittings, on the other hand, refer to the end attachments, such as hooks, eyes, or links, that connect the wire rope assembly to other components or structures.
In wire rope assemblies, ferrules are used to secure the ends of the wire rope by compressing them tightly around the strands, creating a strong and reliable termination point. Fittings are then attached to these terminated ends to allow for connections to be made with other equipment or structures. This combination of ferrules and fittings ensures that the wire rope assembly can withstand heavy loads, vibrations, and other environmental factors.
