The
National Die Guide will assist you in selecting the proper
dies to meet your swaging needs.
|
- For
Flemish eye wire rope splicing.
- Designed
for low temperature toughness.
- Resists
cracking when swaged (equals or exceeds stainless steel sleeves).
- Special
processed low carbon steel.
- “Cold
Tuff® ” for better swageability.
- Can be stamped
for identification after swaging without concern for fractures when
following these directions.
|
Use
round corner stamps to a maximum depth of 0.015 in. (1/64).
The area for stamping should be on the side of the sleeve in the
plane of the sling eye, and no less than 0.250 in. (1/4) from
either end of the sleeve. |
- Standard
Steel Sleeve terminations have efficiency ratings as follows based
on the catalog strength of wire rope.

NOTE: S-505 Standard Sleeves are recommended for use with 6 x
19 or
6 x 37, IPS or XIP (EIP), XXIP (EEIP), RRL, FC or IWRC wire rope.
Before
using any National Swing fitting with any other type lay, construction
or
grade of wire rope, it is recommended that the termination be destructive
tested and
documented to prove the adequacy of the assembly to be manufactured.

National QUIC-PASS®
Swaging System
"The Next Generation
in Swaging Systems"
|
| The QUIC-PASS®
swaging system allows "Flemish style" wire
rope terminations to be swaged in only two passes.
This is accomplished while maintaining currently published efficiency
ratings and utilizing National Swage S-505 Standard "Cold
Tuff" Steel Sleeves. |

- Allows the
swaging process to be completed in just two passes. Resulting in a
50-75% reduction in the number of passes required with conventional
swaging systems.
- Allows the
dies to close completely with each pass, resulting in...
|
|
|
|
|
- An increase
in overall swaging process efficiencies (the job can
be performed quicker).
- A reduction
in the complexity of swaging (the concern for excess
flashing between dies has been eliminated.
- A
reduction in raining time needed for operations (more
user friendly).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The finished
sleeve has a "Hex" appearance that provides a QUIC-CHECK®
look to determine if the termination has been swaged and provides
a flat surface that allows for ease of I.D. stamping
on the finished sleeve.
