The Ropeblock Socket range is designed for both general-purpose and high-performance wire ropes, operating reliably in extreme environments such as dredging, mining, subsea, and arctic conditions. Every socket is manufactured from quenched and tempered cast steel, ensuring high mechanical properties with Charpy-V impact values exceeding 42 Joules at $-20^\circ C$. Leveraging Finite Element Method (FEM) and strain gauge testing, Ropeblock has optimized socket geometry to include industry-first features like anti-rotation noses and low notch-factor designs for superior fatigue service. All Spelter Sockets (OSS, CSS, SBS) are type approved by DNV and Lloyd’s Register, with complete traceability through batch and serial numbering.
