Built for 1/2 inch wire rope, the Machining & Welding 1/2 IN Teacup Ferrule Fitting forms a teacup shaped termination for pipe handling rigging.

The fitting seats into a standard concrete pipe bell, giving the wire rope a secure, rated connection point at the pipe.

The fitting is manufactured from steel and shaped to standard concrete pipe bell dimensions, swaged onto the wire rope during assembly.

Keeping spare fittings on hand means a worn or damaged termination does not take an entire pipe lifting sling out of service.

Facilities ranging from small machine shops to large distribution centers keep equipment like this on hand for the lifts that come up week after week. It is the kind of tool that earns its spot on the floor by saving time on every single pick, and it pays for itself quickly once it replaces improvised rigging on a recurring job.

Rated capacity should always be treated as a hard limit, not a target, and a quick visual inspection before each lift is one of the simplest ways to keep a lifting operation safe. Make sure your operators are trained on the specific rigging setup this equipment requires, and confirm that anyone signing off on a lift understands how to read the working load limit and match it against the actual load being moved.

Well-built rigging hardware holds its rated capacity through years of regular use, provided it is inspected and stored properly between jobs. A dry, organized storage area away from corrosive chemicals or extreme temperature swings goes a long way toward extending the service life of steel components.

Full specifications are listed below so you can confirm fit against your current rigging before it ships.

The Machining & Welding 1/2 IN Teacup Ferrule Fitting is ready to swage onto your next pipe rigging assembly.
