Wire Rope Thimbles
British Standard wire rope thimbles
We’ve been helping customers protect cables and rope loops for decades by manufacturing and supplying high-quality wire rope thimbles in both standard and custom sizes.
Our thimbles are trusted across the marine, construction and transport sectors and are commonly used in rigging, sails, fall arrest systems and safety equipment.
The range includes heart-shaped, open and heavy-duty thimbles, available in brass or stainless steel and manufactured to BS3226 quality standards.
If you need a reliable off-the-shelf solution, we will work to meet your requirements and deliver on time, every time.


What makes our thimbles different?
Heart-shaped thimbles
A classic choice for general protection. The smooth, rounded shape keeps rope secure and reduces wear under tension.
Open cable thimbles
Simple to fit and ideal for lighter-duty applications where quick assembly or adjustment is key.
Heavy-duty thimbles
Built for high-load use in demanding environments. These reinforced variants offer extra strength and long-term durability.
