Sta-Lok Compacted Strand Wedges

Sta-Lok Compacted Strand Self-Fit Wedges, for use with Sta-Lok DIY swageless terminals and Compacted Strand wire, can be fitted in situ, onsite or onboard with simple hand tools.

The concept was originally brought to the marine market over 48 years ago.

Sta-Lok Self-Fit Terminals are recognised worldwide for consistent high quality and fail-safe reliability.

The Sta-Lok Self-Fit terminal will work under constant loading and variable shock loading.

Fitted correctly, the termination is stronger than the rated breaking load of the wire rope.

• In situ assembly - simple to install using only hand tools
• No pre-measurement required
• A different wedge is required for 1×19, 7 strands and compacted strand wire rope
• All wedges are laser marked for easy identification and selection
• Guaranteed stronger than wire rope
• Sta-Lok wedges are absolutely essential whenever Sta-Lok terminals are being re-used.

These cones are specifically designed for use with Compacted Strand wire, but only certain diameters of Dyform wire.

Do not use on standard 1x19, 7x7, 7x19

Dyform branded wire is a legacy brand that is no longer available. Modern wire of similar construction is called Compact or Compacted Strand.

4mm, 5mm, 8mm and 10mm wedges are suitable for both Dyform and Compact Strand. If you are ordering for 6mm, 7mm and 12mm wire please check the chart below to see which parts you require.

Compacted Strand and Dyform wire ropes provide higher breaking loads and lower stretch than conventional 1x19 wire

There are 5 different constructions (1×7), (1×19), (1×25), (1×31) and (1×36)

Sta-Lok Swageless Self-Fit terminals will terminate each of these constructions using different wedges - see table below.
