<p>A socket (10) for an end of a wire rope. The socket includes a basket (14) with a conical inner surface (16) and a conical outer surface (18), said inner basket surface having an opening (22) for receiving the wire rope. A resin or zinc nose-cone secures an end of the wire rope in the socket. The use of a resin nose-cone in the socket ensures that the socket only bears the force of a load on the wire rope near a neck (24). As a result, a thickness of an annular wall near the neck is tapered away from the neck.</p> |
