There are many types of wire rope end terminations that can be produced. Your choice will be dependent upon the application and the task in which the termination is going to be used. The Working Load Limit rating of the termination/wire rope combination is not entirely a function of the fitting being used. Therefore, the anticipated efficiency is shown as a function of the wire rope strength.

It is important that the proper components be used to make a termination. For a specific style of wire rope termination you must choose the correct type and size of fitting, the correct swaging dies if a swage product is required.
