3 Ropeblock, your partner for standard and custom designed sockets Ropeblock s product portfolio of lifting products is well established. After the initial introduction, two decades ago, Ropeblock s socket line has become the industry standard for many end-users and lifting system designers. Wire rope manufacturer s worldwide consider Ropeblock to be the brand of choice for their rope. Our time proven design has been awarded with both DNV and Lloyd s Register type approvals, establishing our unique position in the industry. Through our knowledge and experience as a crane block and swivel manufacturer, our sockets have been designed to meet the latest lifting standards. This is one of the reasons why many crane manufacturers specify Ropeblock s socket in their cranes and structures. The socket product line consists of sockets to be used with both general purpose as well as high performance ropes. They may be used for both quasi-static applications such as bridge suspensions, pendant lines etc. and of course also for more dynamic situations such as in lifting, rigging and mooring applications. Ropeblock sockets are used in extreme environments such as dredging, mining, arctic and subsea applications. Besides the standard line that is shown in this catalogue, Ropeblock can design, engineer and manufacture any special socket solution that a certain application might require. Distribution Ropeblock has a strong and global network of stocking distributors. This ensures end-users and OEM s immediate availability to Ropeblock sockets. Research and design Ropeblock s engineering team is continuously researching the limits and limitation of socket design, material usage, application and certification requirements. These extensive studies have led to innovative designs with articles published in several industry leading trade magazines. Some of the key-features of Ropeblock sockets include: n A groove-less spelter design: this reduces peak stress areas, enabling the function of the wire-gripping-slide action n Anti-Rotation notch: this prevents the resin-wire mixture in the cone to rotate and move upwards in a zero-load situation n Sockets are castings: research has shown that, when subjected to multi-directional loads, a casting provides optimal load resistance, compared to forgings n Design and materials are optimized for fatigue resistance n 3D FEM analysis is done for each component Material Our standard socket range is available in quenched and tempered cast steel with mechanical properties meeting today s tough market requirements. The Short Bow range (SBS, p 17) is also made of quenched and tempered cast steel, with a different chemical composition and with extremely high mechanical properties 4 5

4 to achieve an unmatched weight to MBL ratio. All our sockets are suitable for usage in a sub-zero temperature environment. Materials meet or exceed an impact value of > 42 Joule / -20 C Charpy-V. All casting tolerances are in accordance with DIN GTB 17, unless otherwise specified. The Ropeblock socket is marked with size, wire rope diameter and batch or serial number. All parts are fully traceable to their certificate by batch or serial number marked on each component. Testing Ropeblock sockets are subject to the most stringent surface and volumetric NDT procedures, excluding any risk for production flaws. These procedures are accepted by IACS authorities. Sockets can be proof loaded in accordance with the Ropeblock testing program, this implies testing up to 30% of the MBL of the socket. Higher proof loads are available upon request. In-house access to a vertical socket test bed, as well as a horizontal general purpose test bed is available to ensure fast reaction time. Custom designed testing tools have been developed to test all elements, including the cone (or spelter). Finish All Wedge, Spelter and Fast and Super reeve Connector Sockets are finished with a Ropeblock-blue coating, or a hot dip galvanized finish. Swage sockets and sleeves are available in a self coloured finish. ROPEBLOCK Special requirements Our engineers are ready to work on any special requirements you may have. Advanced 3D CAD and Finite Element Method (FEM) techniques decrease the time-to-market of new innovative socket designs. These designs include, but are not limited to, different materials (e.g. stainless steel), advanced features (e.g. swivel socket), aesthetic designs (e.g. for bridge work).

Warnings and application instructions General Safety measures should be taken into account when using our sockets. Carefully follow all installation instructions. Important measures can be found below. Spelter Sockets n Proper spelter socket terminations have an efficiency equal to the breaking load of the wire. This can be limited by the minimum breaking load of the socket (MBL), as mentioned in the tables n Please read the instructions of the resin manufacturer carefully before use. Incorrect use of the resin or spelter material can result in an unsafe termination. More information can also be obtained from your wire rope supplier n Always remove any dirt and grease from the wire rope broom and socket basket n Ensure that the broomed wires are evenly spaced in the basket and that the wire and basket are aligned with each other n When using white metal or zinc, the socket may be preheated to 300 C (570 F), but never over 350 C (660 F) n Make sure the base of the socket is properly sealed. This to prevent resin leakage, which may cause voids n Never use an assembly before the resin is fully hardened n Procedures in EN , ISO or equivalent should be followed n Socketing shall always be executed by competent personnel only Fast Connector Sockets n The FCS standard (rotating) connector shall be used with nonrotating or rotation resistant wire rope n The FCS Spin Resistant connector shall be used with non-rotation resistant wire rope only, but will also work with rotation resistant wire rope n Socketing of the connector shall be executed by competent personnel only. Normal socketing procedures for spelter sockets shall be followed Warnings and application instructions Super reeve Connector Sockets n The SCS standard (rotating) connector shall be used with non-rotating or rotation resistant wire rope n The SCS Spin Resistant connector shall be used with non-rotation resistant wire rope only, but will also work with rotation resistant wire rope n Socketing of the connector shall be executed by competent personnel only. Normal socketing procedures for spelter sockets shall be followed n The connector cap shall be secured after socketing by means of a high strength thread locking adhesive n The connector cap is not a lifting device; it is used to pull the connector through the reeving system with a standard shackle n The connector shall always be installed and used with the retainer properly installed Wedge Sockets n Always mount the loaded part of the wire in the centre line of the pin (see figures below) n Secure properly the dead end with a wire rope clip n Do not attach the dead end to the live wire n The dead end should have a length of 6 times the wire diameter with a minimum of 150 mm n Ensure that the wire rope and wedge are fully seated after the first load n A load may slip if the connection is not properly installed n Inspect the connection regularly n The efficiency of a 6 or 8 strand wire rope and most high performance ropes with a Ropeblock wedge socket connection is 80% of the MBL of the wire rope, but limited to the MBL of the socket n Check your wire rope supplier for efficiency rating details when used with high performance ropes and test the assembly to determine efficiency n Nominal intermediate rope sizes should be used with the biggest socket within the range correct incorrect incorrect ROPEBLOCK 12 13
