Abstract
Wedge sockets are among the simplest devices for anchoring a wire rope for any purposes. They are intended for 'on the job' attachment and for quick rope replacement. Principal advantages are simplicity, ease and speed of applying and detaching. Wedge sockets are commercially available and an information article on wedge sockets appears in attachment 'A', 'Wire Rope Rigging Manual', pages 45 and 46.
