Open Swage Sockets

Lexco Cable offers open swage sockets in both carbon steel and stainless steel material. Plating and galvanizing for carbon steel swage sockets is available upon request. Our open swage sockets are available in various standard sizes to accommodate cable from 14" to 1-12” in diameter. Clevis pins are typically included with all models.

Open swage sockets are extremely similar to forkjaw ends. However, open swage sockets have larger dimensions, most notably their clevis diameters, inside widths, and depths below pin. Additionally, open swage sockets are made from forgings, while forkjaw ends are either cast or machined.

Open swage sockets must be machine swaged for proper hold strength. Please contact a Lexco sales representative to receive an assembly quote.
