Aluminium Stop Buttons
Ferrules, when properly applied, are capable of holding the rated breaking strength of the rope to which they are applied.
However, to determine the exact holding strength, PULL TESTING IS ESSENTIAL prior to use.
This step insures the proper selection of materials, the correct swaging procedure, and an ample margin of safety for the intended use.
