R – Aluminium End Stop

Round aluminium ferrules, including the R End Stop, are commonly employed as end stops or stoppers on both bright and galvanized wire ropes. The aluminium alloy EN AW-5051A, compliant with EN 573-3 standards, meets the material requirements specified in EN 13411-3. These ferrules are compatible with the same dies used for T ferrules, ensuring ease of use and consistency in application.

Key Features:

• Material: Constructed from durable Aluminium alloy EN AW-5051A, offering reliable performance for various applications.
• Compatibility: Designed for use with bright and galvanized wire ropes, providing versatility and adaptability.
• Standards compliance: Meets EN 573-3 and EN 13411-3 material standards, ensuring high quality and consistency.

Important considerations: Round aluminium end stops, such as the R End Stop, are not recommended for high-strength applications. The expected strength of this end stop is approximately 50% of the minimum breaking load of the wire rope. It is essential to conduct verifying tests to ensure the strength and reliability of the termination for your specific application.

Applications include:

• General-purpose end stops or stoppers in wire rope assemblies
• Use with bright or galvanized wire ropes for various industrial applications
• Situations where an aluminium end stop is preferred for its material properties and compatibility
