Wirelock is a unique socketing compound for use with wire ropes. It is quite simply the best socketing solution for safety, dependability and unparalleled fatigue performance. Wirelock started life in 1962 and has been in general use for more than 30 years.

Wirelock is the original cold socketing compound and, therefore, eliminates the hazards of working with a molten metal, allowing socketing to be done on site in virtually all weather conditions. It is extremely difficult to produce a void free socket when using molten metal, but extremely easy to produce a voidfree socket using Wirelock. This ensures a quality socket every time.

In order to maintain Wirelock's premier position in the marketplace we continually strive to refine and improve the product. We operate a monitoring programme to ensure that the quality of Wirelock never varies.

Full technical details of how to use wirelock can be found in the Wirelock Technical Manual which is available upon request. It may also be downloaded from our Technical Manuals Section
