Description
Aluminium T Ferrule – 8 mm × 16 mm
Talurit GTA08 Aluminium T Ferrules are precision-engineered end stops designed for non-lifting wire rope terminations. Constructed from high-quality aluminium, these ferrules provide consistent deformation, secure retention, and excellent corrosion resistance, ideal for marine, industrial, and architectural applications. They are compatible with fibre core and steel core wire ropes when swaged with the correct die and pressure.

Important Safety & Application Notice
Talurit Aluminium Ferrules (T, TK, TKH) are not permitted for lifting applications.
Expected strength is approximately 50% of the wire rope Minimum Breaking Load (MBL). Verification testing must be performed to confirm actual strength and suitability. Responsibility for correct selection, installation, and testing rests with the installer or system designer.
