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. 4 s e e o u r w a r n i n g a n d s a f e t y i n f o r m a t i o n

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 s e e o u r w a r n i n g a n d s a f e t y i n f o r m a t i o n 5

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 1683-1 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. 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).

Tugging lines are intended only to hold the product in position. 17

Warning and safety information Sockets SOCKETS General Safety measures should be taken into account when using our sockets. Carefully follow all installation instructions. Important information can be found below. Ropeblock sockets provide adequate ductility and should be considered fit for purpose until minimum operating temperatures of -40 C in general service application. Check your application specific criteria with the set design temperature against the specifications set forth in de applicable design standards or rules. Ropeblock sockets meet or exceed 42J/-20 C Charpy V impact values. Excluding limitations set forth by the wire rope and/or resin or spelter material as described in the EN and ISO standards (typ. 80 C for fibre core ropes and 110 C for resin), sockets will be affected by higher temperatures too, but continue to serve with below approximate limited work load capacity rating at these elevated temperatures. 110 C with 100% capacity rating 150 C with 92% capacity rating 200 C with 83% capacity rating 250 C with 75% capacity rating 300 C with 67% capacity rating Your application requires compensation for this. For intermittent use at elevated temperatures the temperature the socket body will reach should be determined. Use above 300 C is not recommended, contact Ropeblock for further guidance. Dimensional tolerances depend on the manufacturing techniques applied and are different between machined components (pins) and cast components (socket bodies and wedges). Also surface finish e.g. hot dip galvanizing or even paint may add to the overall thickness and fork distance. Please contact Ropeblock for further guidance and a detailed dimensional tolerance sheet. All spelter sockets and wedge sockets receive the vigorous Ropeblock Non Destructive Testing (NDT) regime. This working program is covering both surface inspections (MT and visual) as well as volumetric inspections (UT). Volumetric RT inspections can be done on request. Certificates are available when so ordered. Socket(pin)s may be used as an orientating hinge-point. To prevent excessive wear and additional rope bending they should not be used as a friction hinge point under load. Further design evaluation and creating a proper functional hinge point is advised. Check for potential pin rolling with axial movement that may develop depending operation. n Always carry out a visual inspection before using a socket and pin. n Never use a part showing cracks or damages. n Do not side-load a socket. n Repairs are not allowed; For consultation contact Ropeblock. n Never shock-load a socket. 18

Warning and safety information Proof testing individual sockets Sockets can be individually proof tested on request. The default proof load value is 30% of the catalogue MBL of the socket. Testing to 40% can be done on request. Higher values will require special consideration. Proof testing socketed assemblies Per EN 13411-4:2011 type testing may be required. Please see the standard and annex C and F for further guidance. (Alternatively ISO 17558:2006.) Depending the application, end-user requirement and / or local regulations, socketed assemblies may require to be proof tested individually with a proof load relative to the Work Load Limit or Safe Working Load assigned to the socketed assembly. Spelter Sockets 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. For further performance specifications, see our type approvals. 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. Look for the expiration date of the resin. More information can also be obtained from your wire rope supplier. Always remove any dirt and grease from the wire rope broom and socket basket. Ensure that the broomed wires are evenly spaced in the basket and that the wire and basket are aligned with each other. When using white metal or zinc, the socket may be preheated up-to 350 C (660 F). Make sure the base of the socket is properly sealed. This to prevent resin leakage, which may cause voids. It is recommended to pour on one side as this will help eliminate air bubbles being formed. Check for proper penetration of the resin to the bottom. Recommendation to use a 1mm probe wire between the strands to validate resin penetration if possible. Re-grease the wire rope at the neck. Never use an assembly before the resin is fully hardened. Procedures in EN 13411-4 or ISO 17558 or equivalent should be followed. Socketing should always be executed by qualified and competent personnel only. Additional for Fast Connector Sockets The FCS Spin Resistant connector shall be used with non-rotation resistant wire rope and may be used with rotation resistant wire rope. The FCS standard (rotating) connector shall be used with non-rotating or cat 1. rotation resistant wire rope only. Normal socketing procedures for spelter sockets shall be followed. 19

Warning and safety information Remove seizing after and up to the bottom of the basket when the seizing is in contact with the housing. The lugs are not a lifting device; they are designed to fit a tool used to pull the connector through the reeving system with a standard shackle. One may leave the tool once assembled if clearance in the application allows for it. Additional for Super reeve Connector Sockets The SCS Spin Resistant connector shall be used with non-rotation resistant wire rope and may be used with rotation resistant wire rope. The SCS standard (rotating) connector shall be used with non-rotating or cat 1. rotation resistant wire rope only. The basket length differs from normal. Measure appropriately for required broom height. Seizing should match your working method. Use a cover to protect the thread. Resin penetration may be more difficult in the tight SCS buttons, esp. with large fill factor ropes with a large number of wires (e.g. high performance ropes like 35x7). Normal socketing procedures for spelter sockets shall be followed with the addition of the following recommendations for resin: - Do NOT use booster packages to speed up curing. - Reduce mixing time when possible, but keep resin mfg instructions. - At higher ambient temperatures we recommend to refrigerator cool the resin to delay curing / increase gel time. And if possible to cool the pre-assembly too to the same temperature as the resin. Follow resin manufacturers limitations. - It is recommend to stay out of direct sunlight on hotter days. - Suggest to use low viscous resin. (typ. found in smaller cans.) - Suggest wire poking around in the socket basket, as you pour, which should release air bubbles more easy and promote resin penetration to the bottom. - To prevent air becoming trapped, consider pouring without putty at the bottom and placing the putty once the resin comes out at the bottom. (Two pair of hands needed.) Remove seizing after and up to the bottom of the basket when the seizing is in contact with the housing. The connector cap shall be secured after socketing by means of a high strength thread locking adhesive. (E.g. Loctite 270, etc.) The connector cap is not a lifting device; it is used to pull the connector through the reeving system with a standard shackle. The connector shall always be installed in the socket housing and used with the retainer properly mounted and secured. The SCS connector is not recommended for re-use. 20

Make sure you are using the correct house, rope and wedge size combination. Nominal intermediate rope sizes should be used with the biggest socket within the range. Secure properly the dead end with a wire rope clip. Do not attach the dead end to the live wire. The dead end should have a length of 6 times the wire diameter with a minimum of 150 mm. Ensure that the wire rope and wedge are fully seated after the first load. A load may slip if the connection is not properly installed. Inspect the connection regularly. 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. Check your wire rope supplier for efficiency rating details when used with high performance ropes or test the assembly type to determine efficiency.

Warning and safety information Swage sockets and sleeves (Flemish eye ferrule) Swage Sockets and Sleeves are recommended for use on 6 x 19 or 6 x 37 IPS or XIP (EIP), XXIP (EEIP), RRL, FC, or IWRC wire ropes. They are also approved for use on galvanized bridge rope. They are not recommended for use on fibre core ropes without further measures. Properly applied Swage Sockets may reach an efficiency rating of 100% and shall have a minimum efficiency of 90% per EN 13411-8. This rating is based on the catalogue strength of wire rope. This can be limited by the minimum breaking load of the socket (MBL) Swaged sleeves should generate an efficiency of at least 90% per EN 13411-3. For further performance specifications, please contact Ropeblock. Swage sockets and sleeves are forged from special steel quality and heat treated for cold swaging. Proper swaging methods must be followed for all Swage Sockets and Sleeves. Always use the matching dies to the socket or sleeve. Ensure the dies are aligned and within the limits for admissible wear. The position of the rope end should be verified prior to swaging and after swaging. Multiple progressive pressings are required to prevent flash, which could develop into a permanent mark or possibly a crack in the sleeve. A color change will not indicate proper swaging A light oil lubricant should be applied to each die and wiped clean after swaging For swaging practice details contact the die manufacturer Always verify after swaging dimensional limits. Each swaged termination shall be free of any flaws and surface defects and shall not exhibit any sharp edges or rough surfaces. The outline of EN 13411-3 / EN 13411-8 or equivalent should be followed Caution: Proper swaging practices are the responsibility of the sling manufacturer. Before using Swage Sockets or Sleeves with other type lay, construction or grade of wire rope, it is recommended that the termination be type tested to prove the adequacy of the assembly For Flemish eye constructions we recommend to follow internationally prescribed construction, safety criteria and inspection procedures. (e.g. EN 13414, ISO 8792 and ASME B30.9) 23
