Product Description

WANGYUAN Socket Series are designed for terminating and locking insulator strings in distribution and transmission line suspension and tension assemblies. Made of hot-dip galvanized forged and cast alloy steel, the U-shaped clevis jaw houses a precision ball-socket cavity with internal steel bearing balls for self-centering alignment of mating ball-eye connectors. Available in WS and W configurations with multiple load ratings. All products comply with relevant international standards.

Advantages

Self-Centering Locking

Self-Centering Locking

Internal steel ball bearings within the socket cavity provide self-centering alignment of the mating ball-eye, ensuring uniform contact pressure and eliminating edge-loading. The positive-locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnection under vibration and wind sway.

Forged Steel Construction

Forged Steel Construction

Manufactured from premium alloy steels through forging and precision casting, the socket bodies feature thick-wall U-jaw construction for exceptional tensile and shear strength. The ball-socket cavity is machined to tight tolerances for consistent mating.

Corrosion Resistance

Corrosion Resistance

Hot-dip galvanizing encapsulates all surfaces including internal socket cavities and pin holes with a robust zinc coating that resists atmospheric corrosion, galvanic corrosion at dissimilar metal interfaces and chemical attack from industrial pollutants.

Versatile Configuration

Versatile Configuration

The Socket Series spans WS-type for standard suspension and W-type for tension applications, with a comprehensive range of load ratings and jaw dimensions. Standardized interface geometry ensures full interchangeability with international suppliers.
