About LOCOLOC

LOCOLOC is a brand associated with wire rope and cable hardware, specifically swaging tools, tension gauges, clevis pins, and threaded studs. The product line focuses on mechanical components used to terminate, tension, and connect wire rope in rigging, lifting, and tensioning assemblies. 3G Electric supplies LOCOLOC products globally, offering technical buyers access to these components with published specifications for integration into industrial systems.

The LOCOLOC range includes hand swaging tools, such as the scissors-style cable swaging tool (MPN #1-3-SBHS), designed for crimping copper oval sleeves onto wire rope or cable. This tool accommodates sleeve sizes 1/32 in, 3/64 in, 1/16 in, and 3/32 in, with a 6-inch handle length. The swaging tool is a manual device, suitable for field or bench work where powered crimping is not required. The brand also offers right-hand thread studs, which are external thread components used for terminating wire rope ends. These studs are available in multiple sizes to match compatible rope diameters: 1/16 in, 3/32 in, 1/8 in, 5/32 in, 3/16 in, and 1/4 in. Each stud features a specific thread size and length, such as #6-32 thread with 1 3/64 in thread length for the 1/16 in rope diameter model (MPN 259-2CTRH), up to 3/8"-16 thread with 1 3/4 in thread length for the 1/4 in rope diameter model (MPN 259-8CTRH). All listed studs are constructed from stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance for outdoor or humid environments. Additionally, LOCOLOC supplies standard clevis pins, such as the 18-8 stainless steel clevis pin (MPN PI1-3) with a 3/16 in pin diameter and 1/2 in shank length, used in clevis and hitch pin applications for creating secure, removable pivot joints.

The product families serve application categories including rigging, lifting, tensioning, and cable assembly. The swaging tool is used for creating permanent terminations on wire rope using copper oval sleeves. The thread studs provide a threaded connection point for wire rope terminations, allowing attachment to other hardware or structures. The clevis pins enable pivoting connections in mechanical linkages. These components are typically specified by plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists who require precise dimensions and material specifications. The stainless steel construction of the studs and clevis pins offers resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for various industrial environments. The swaging tool's handle length and sleeve size range are specified for manual operation. 3G Electric supports the LOCOLOC line by stocking these items and providing detailed product data, including manufacturer part numbers, thread sizes, and material grades, to facilitate selection and procurement. Technical buyers can reference the specifications to ensure compatibility with their existing wire rope and hardware systems. The global availability of LOCOLOC products through 3G Electric allows customers to source these components regardless of location, with the ability to request quotes and compare specifications.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about LOCOLOC from 3G Electric.

What sizes of copper oval sleeves can the LOCOLOC scissors-style cable swaging tool crimp?

The LOCOLOC scissors-style cable swaging tool (MPN #1-3-SBHS) is designed to crimp copper oval sleeves in four sizes: 1/32 in, 3/64 in, 1/16 in, and 3/32 in. It features a 6-inch handle length, providing leverage for manual crimping. This tool is intended for use with wire rope or cable, creating permanent terminations when paired with compatible sleeves. The specific sleeve size must match the wire rope diameter for proper assembly. The tool is a hand-operated device, suitable for maintenance and assembly tasks where a powered crimper is not available or practical.

What thread sizes are available for LOCOLOC right-hand thread studs?

LOCOLOC right-hand thread studs are offered with thread sizes that correspond to compatible wire rope diameters. The range includes #6-32 thread for 1/16 in rope (MPN 259-2CTRH), #10-24 thread for 3/32 in rope (MPN 259-3CTRH), 1/4"-20 thread for 1/8 in and 5/32 in rope (MPNs 259-4CTRH and 259-5CTRH), 5/16"-18 thread for 3/16 in rope (MPN 259-6CTRH), and 3/8"-16 thread for 1/4 in rope (MPN 259-8CTRH). Thread lengths vary from 1 3/64 in to 1 3/4 in. All studs are constructed from stainless steel. These studs are used for terminating wire rope ends in rigging and lifting assemblies.

What material are LOCOLOC clevis pins made from?

LOCOLOC standard clevis pins are made from 18-8 stainless steel. For example, the clevis pin with MPN PI1-3 has a 3/16 in pin diameter and 1/2 in shank length. 18-8 stainless steel offers corrosion resistance and is suitable for applications where exposure to moisture or chemicals is a concern. These pins are used in clevis and hitch pin applications to create secure, removable pivot joints. The stainless steel construction allows for use in outdoor or washdown environments. The pin diameter and shank length are specified for each model to match the required joint dimensions.

What is the purpose of a LOCOLOC wire rope stud?

A LOCOLOC wire rope stud is an external right-hand thread component used to terminate wire rope ends. It provides a threaded connection point that can be attached to other hardware, such as turnbuckles, eye bolts, or structural anchors. The stud is designed to be swaged or attached to the wire rope, depending on the specific model and application. The thread size and length are matched to the rope diameter to ensure proper load transfer. These studs are commonly used in rigging, lifting, and tensioning assemblies where a threaded termination is required. The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance.

Can LOCOLOC swaging tools be used with stainless steel wire rope?

The LOCOLOC scissors-style cable swaging tool (MPN #1-3-SBHS) is designed for crimping copper oval sleeves onto wire rope or cable. The tool's compatibility with stainless steel wire rope depends on the sleeve material and the tool's rated capacity. Copper oval sleeves are typically used with wire rope, including stainless steel, when the correct sleeve size is selected. The tool accommodates sleeve sizes from 1/32 in to 3/32 in. For specific applications, consult the wire rope and sleeve manufacturer's recommendations to ensure the termination meets the required strength and safety standards. The tool is manually operated and intended for field or bench use.

What are the dimensions of the LOCOLOC standard clevis pin with MPN PI1-3?

The LOCOLOC standard clevis pin with MPN PI1-3 has a pin diameter of 3/16 in and a shank length of 1/2 in. It is made from 18-8 stainless steel. This inch-sized pin is designed for use in clevis and hitch pin applications, providing a removable pivot joint. The pin diameter and shank length are critical dimensions for matching the clevis or bracket hole size and the required joint width. The stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance. This pin is part of the LOCOLOC line of wire rope and cable hardware available from 3G Electric.
