The Terminator
Crosby's New and Improved Wedge Socket

S421T Drawing S4521T'
  • Basket is cast steel.
  • Wedge socket terminations have an effeciency rating of 80% based on the catalog strength of XXIP wire rope.
  • Crosby products meet or exceed all the requirements of ASME B30.26 including identification, ductility, design factor, proof load and temperature requirements.  Importantly, Crosby products meet other critical performance requirements including fatigue life, impact properties and material traceability, not addressed by ASME B20.26.
  • Individually magnetic particle inspected.
  • Pin diameter and jaw opening allows wedge and socket to be used in conjunction with open swage and spelter sockets.
  • Secures the tail or "dead end" of the wire rope to the wedge, thus eliminates loss or "Punch out" of the wedge.
  • Eliminates the need for an extra piece of rope, and is easily installed.
  • The TERMINATOR wedge eliminates the potential breaking off of the tail due to fatigue.
  • The tail, which is secured by the base of the clip and the wedge, is left undeformed and available for reuse.
  • Incorporates Crosby's patented QUIC-CHECK "Go" and "No-Go" feature cast into the wedge. The proper size rope is determined when the following criteria are met:
  • 1) The wire rope should pass thru the "Go" hole in the wedge.
  • 2) The wire rope should NOT pass thru the "No-Go" hole in the wedge.
  • Utilizes standard Crosby Red-U-Bolt wire rope clip.
  • Standard S-421 wedge socket can be retrofitted with the new style TERMINATOR wedge.
  • Available with Bolt, Nut, and Cotter Pin.
  • U.S. patent 5,553,360 and foreign equivalents.
