🔍 Key Concepts

• Proper methods for forming a temporary eye in wire rope • The purpose of a thimble in wire rope terminations • Why knots are generally not used in wire rope

💭 Think About

• Which option actually preserves most of the wire rope’s strength when forming a temporary eye? • Look at each choice: which ones involve knots, and how do knots affect wire rope strength? • What hardware is commonly clamped onto wire rope when you need a quick, non-permanent termination?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices involve knots and recall that knots in wire rope drastically reduce its strength • Check which option specifically mentions a thimble, and remember what a thimble does for the eye • Ask: for a temporary termination, which method is standard practice in rigging and can be removed and reused easily?
