* Nominal
NOTE: For intermediate wire rope sizes, use next larger size socket.
The S-423T Super TERMINATOR® wedge is designed to be assembled only into the Crosby S-421T TERMINATOR® socket body.
IMPORTANT: The S-423TW for sizes 14mm through 28mm will fit respective size standard Crosby S-421T basket. The 30-32mm
S-423TW will only fit the Crosby S-421T 30-32mm basket marked with “TERMINATOR”.

• The 423T wedge socket terminations have a minimum efficiency rating on most high performance, high strength, compacted strand, rotation resistant wire ropes of 80% based on the catalog breaking strength of the various ropes.**
• Design eliminates the difficulty of properly seating the wedge with high performance wire rope into a wedge socket termination.
• Proper application of the Super TERMINATOR eliminates the “first load” requirement of conventional wedge socket terminations.
• S-423TW Wedge Kit can be retrofitted onto existing Crosby S-421T TERMINATOR wedge sockets.
• Wedge and accessories provided with a zinc finish.
• Meets the performance requirements of EN13411-6:2003.
• Meets or exceeds all requirements of ASME B30.26 including identification, ductility, design factor, proof load and temperature requirements. Importantly, these sockets meet other critical performance requirements including fatigue life, impact properties and material traceability, not addressed by ASME B30.26.
• Basket is cast steel and individually magnetic particle inspected.
• Pin diameter and jaw opening allows wedge and socket to be used in conjunction with closed 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 tension device, is left undeformed and available for reuse.
• Available with Bolt, Nut, and Cotter Pin.
• US Patent 8,375,527 B1.

** NOTICE: Due to the unique construction of various ropes, Crosby cannot make a broad general statement that all current and future design of ropes, when properly assembled with the Super TERMINATOR®, will achieve a minimum 80% termination efficiency. Contact wire rope manufacturer or Crosby engineering (918-834-4611) to determine efficiency rating for a specific rope.

The Crosby S-423T Super TERMINATOR is the first wedge socket designed to take advantage of the performance properties associated with high performance, high strength, compacted strand, rotation
resistant wire rope.
The Crosby Super TERMINATOR offers several advantages over traditional methods of wedge socket terminations:

  • The innovative design will significantly increase the termination efficiency over existing wedge sockets available today.
  • Terminations on most ropes have a minimum efficiency rating of 80% of the rope’s catalog breaking strength.
  • Design eliminates the difficulty of properly seating the wedge with high performance, high strength, compacted strand, rotation resistant wire rope into a wedge socket termination.
  • Proper application of the Super TERMINATOR eliminates the first load” requirement of conventional wedge socket terminations.
  • US Patent 8,375,527 B1.

Additional Features:

  • Wire rope sizes available: 5/8″-1 1/4, 14mm-32mm
  • Available as a complete assembly, or as a wedge kit that can be retrofitted onto existing Crosby S-421T TERMINATOR wedge sockets.
  • Wedge accessories provided with a zinc finish.
  • Meets or exceeds all ASME B30.26 requirements including: identification, ductility, design factor, proof
    load, and temperature requirements. Importantly, they meet other critical performance criteria not addressed by ASME B30.26 including: fatigue life, impact properties and material traceability.
  • Available with bolt, nut and cotter (S-423TB)
