The larger thread diameters can bear more load or have a greater load-carrying capacity than a smaller thread diameter steel turnbuckle.

It is used precisely to protect the metal rope from wear due to friction with other cables, bars, carabiners, hooks and anything else. Stainless steel thimbles are teardrop shape accessories used to ensure the integrity of the steel or ropes. Earlier it was made up of wood. Now, it is produced by using the best quality stainless steel metals . The U-section of the teardrop shape thimble enables the rope to stay affixed. Its groove in the stainless steel thimble sets the string and helps to distribute the load on the cable. This means it will not damage the part of the cable that covers the teardrop shaped stainless steel thimble.  A metal rope needs to be bent to attach cables, bars, carabiners, hooks and anything alike. But there is a risk that the eye could be crushed. Repeated high load leads to premature failure of metal ropes. The cable's strength can be reduced by wear and kinki...
