Wireline Disc & Spring Type Rope Socket

Standard Toolstring Tools

The PCE (Disc and Spring Type) Rope Socket is used to securely attach .072” - .108”
wireline to the toolstring. Available in various sizes, the rope socket consists of a body,
spring, disc and spring support.
The body has three functions, a housing for the spring, disc and support, an integral fishing
neck to allow the tool string to be pulled if lost, and a flat top preventing cutter bars from
peening the wireline entry hole closed. The wireline is fastened to the grooved disc around
its circumference. This groove is sufficiently deep to prevent damage to the wireline when
the disc comes to bear against the spring support.

Wireline Slip Type Rope Socket

Standard Toolstring Tools

The standard PCE Slip Type Rope Socket is designed for use with small braided lines up to
7/32" diameter. Slip Type Rope Sockets are available in various o.d sizes and consist of a
body sub, carriage, slips, a set screw and features simplicity in construction and assembly.
The slips are designed to cause the line to break under severe loading at a specific
percentage of the full line tensile strength. Standard 50% and 80% slips are available,
please specify when ordering. If during the operation the running tools become stuck, the
operator is assured that the wire will break at the Rope Socket, rather than up-hole,
allowing retrieval of the wireline.
Slip Type Rope Sockets to accommodate alternative wire sizes are available on request.

The PCE Clamp Type Rope Socket is used to provide a secure way of attaching stranded
wireline to a wireline toolstring.
The PCE Clamp Type Rope Socket consists of a body section, a threaded bottom sub and
the cable head. The body section has a flat top so that a cutter bar will not peen the
wireline closed and a fishing neck to allow the toolstring to be retrieved if lost. The wireline

screws. When pulled upwards the wedge shaped cable head clamps the wireline in its
jaws.
