Description
Achieve unwavering strength and unparalleled reliability in your wire rope, cable, and high-performance fishing leader assemblies with genuine Nicopress Crimps. For over a century, Nicopress has been the industry standard for creating secure, permanent mechanical connections, trusted by professionals in rigging, marine, aviation, industrial, and the most demanding big game fishing applications worldwide.
Nicopress Crimps, also known as sleeves or ferrules, are meticulously engineered to provide connections that often match the full rated breaking strength (RBS) of the line itself. Whether you're terminating wire rope for critical industrial uses or crafting indestructible monofilament and fluorocarbon fishing leaders, these crimps ensure your vital connections hold fast under extreme tension and harsh environmental conditions.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Unmatched Security & Strength: When properly applied with the corresponding Nicopress tools, these crimps create a remarkably strong and dependable termination, ensuring maximum load-bearing capacity for eye splices, lap splices, or stop applications. Many types achieve near 100% of the line's breaking strength.
- Versatile Material & Application Options:
- Industrial & Rigging: Ideal for galvanized and stainless steel wire rope, offering robust connections for critical industrial, marine, and aviation rigging.
- Fishing Leaders: Perfect for heavy monofilament and fluorocarbon leaders, providing a knotless, streamlined, and incredibly strong connection for big game and offshore fishing (e.g., tuna, marlin, wahoo).
- Precision Engineering: Designed for specific line diameters and constructed to tight tolerances, ensuring optimal compression and a long-lasting, secure fit.
- Types for Every Need:
- Oval Sleeves: Ideal for forming strong eye loops and lap splices in both wire rope and fishing leaders.
- Stop Sleeves: Essential for creating end stops or attachments for various applications.
- Durable Materials: Available in a range of robust materials:
- Copper (Plain or Tinned/Zinc-Plated): Popular for general wire rope use and highly effective for monofilament and fluorocarbon leaders, often with a black oxide finish for stealth in fishing.
- Aluminum: A lightweight option for less critical wire rope applications or some lighter mono connections.
- Stainless Steel: Provides superior corrosion resistance and high strength for demanding marine and industrial environments, including certain wire leaders.
- Professional Standard: The go-to choice for applications demanding certified strength and unwavering performance, from complex rigging to offshore tournament fishing.
- Seamless System Integration: Designed to be used with genuine Nicopress hand or hydraulic crimping tools and gauges for guaranteed proper installation and maximum connection integrity.
Invest in the proven strength and peace of mind that only genuine Nicopress Crimps can provide. Ensure your wire rope assemblies and fishing leaders are built to last, delivering performance you can rely on in any critical application.
