Pendant

A pendant assembly consists of a length of spiral strand with a bespoke socket fitting attached at either end. Bridon-Bekaert use an established process for socketing which consists of white metal zinc. The spiral strand is a composite of multiple layers of helically twisted steel wires. Layers are spun in opposite directions providing constructional and torque stability. The use of high strength steel wires makes it a good candidate as tension member in static applications. Our proprietary Bridon-Bekaert blocking compound fills the cable on the inside, reducing the impact of steel-steel contact, and adding an additional barrier against corrosion. Our pendants are pre-stretched to meet customer specification.
