Thimbles to DIN 3091: See below
     
Solid Thimbles are used where the sling (or rope) is connected to a straight pin. This makes an excellent permanent installation. Within certain limitations we can increase or bush the bore hole, or we can mill down dimension 'H' to fit a narrower slot. These thimbles are mainly used on crane ropes.
