WSY Socket Clevis

WSY Socket Clevis

The socket clevis is also called socket tongue. It is widely used on the transmission line, overhead line, and power line. The socket clevis is an indispensable pole line hardware that connects the tension clamp and socket type insulator. In different countries, there are different kinds of connections on the socket clevis.

Product Description

Main Components of Socket Clevis

A socket clevis is an assembly of various parts and components.

Even though they vary in designs and shapes, here are some of the most common parts.

1. Anchor shackles

It is a piece of metal usually U-shaped and secured with a clevis pin and a bolt.

Also, it can be secured using a hinged metal loop which has a quick-release locking pin mechanism.

It acts as the main link in different linking systems as they give quick connections and disconnections.

2. Clevis pin

It is an integral part of a clevis fastener which has three main components including clevis pin, clevis, and tang.

The pins are of two types including unthreaded and threaded.

Unthreaded pins have a dome shaped head at one end and on the other end, there is a cross hole.

To keep the clevis pin in place, a split pin or a cotter pin is used.

The threaded pin on the other end has formed heads on one side while the other side is merely threaded.

A nut comes in handy when the pin has to be put in place.

3. Clevis bolt

It can be used to act in place of a clevis pin even though it does not take the stress handled by the clevis pin.

They are made to take and maintain tension loads.

4. Cotter pin

It is also known as a split pin depending on the country it is being used in.

Remember, this is a piece of metal that acts as a fastener with ends that are bent at installation.

It is used in fastening two pieces of metal together.

5. Bolt

It is a type of fastener that has external male threads used and has similarities to a screw.

It is usually used together with a nut.

On one end there is the bolt head and on the other end is the external male thread.

6. Nut

This is a type of fastener that has a threaded hole.

It is used together with a bolt to fasten or join different parts together.

The partnership is put together with the combination of the threads through friction.

Apart from that, it depends on the stretching and compression of the parts that are joined together.

Product Advantages

• 1. Simple structure: The structure of the bowl hanging plate is relatively simple, easy to manufacture and install. This simple structure also makes it have high reliability and stability, and can adapt to various harsh environmental conditions.
• 2. Large bearing capacity: the bowl head hanging plate has a high bearing capacity and can withstand greater tension and pressure. This bearing capacity can meet the requirements of the hardware in the power transmission process and ensure the stable operation of the power line.
• 3. Corrosion Resistance: The WSY Socket Clevis is typically made from materials that offer excellent resistance to corrosion. This ensures that it maintains its structural integrity even in harsh environments where exposure to moisture and chemicals is common, thereby prolonging its service life.
• 4. Versatility: With its socket design, the WSY Socket Clevis can accommodate a variety of pin diameters and connection types. This versatility makes it a preferred choice for numerous applications in the power transmission and distribution sectors, enhancing its utility across different projects.

Application Places

As an important connection fixture in the power grid construction, the bowl hanging plate is mainly used to connect the suspension clamp and the insulator string, and plays the role of connecting the wire and insulation with other accessories.

• It connects the socket type insulator and the tension clamp or the support.
• It is used as fitting in joining insulators of one string. Examples include“ball and socket, clevis and tongue connections, yoke plates for multi-string insulators.
• It can also be used on power lines as an electric link.
• In overhead lines, it is used as an integral part of supplying electric energy to trains, trolley buses, and trams.
• In transmission lines, it is part of the system designed to help in conducting alternate currents in radio frequencies.

Faq

• 1. What's the difference between a W-7A and a 7b

  W-7A and W-7B are single bowl heads, the damage load is 70KN, the difference is mainly the size is different, W-7B is longer, 7A is 70mm, 7B is 115mm。

• 2. What is the function of a socket clevis?

  • Connecting the socket type insulator and the tension clamp.
  • Being used on power lines as an electric link.
  • Being used as an integral part of supplying electric energy to trains, trolley buses, and trams in overhead lines.
  • Helping in conducting alternate currents in radio frequencies in transmission lines.

• 3. What is the breaking load for a socket clevis?

  According to different transmission line voltages, there are 70kn, 120kn, 160kn.
