Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. www.iso.org/directives

ISO 16841:2014(E)
Introduction
This International Standard was developed in response to a worldwide demand for an International
Standard identifying the different types of pulling eyes which are used to facilitate the installing and
re-reeving of ropes on a machine.
Such pulling eyes, sometimes referred to as beckets, are often used when another rope is required to
pull the new rope into place.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16841:2014(E)
Steel wire ropes — Pulling eyes for rope installation —
Types and minimum requirements
1 Scope
This International Standard identifies the different types of pulling eyes prepared at, or attached to, a
steel wire rope end for connection to another rope when installing a new rope or re-reeving an existing
rope on a machine.
This International Standard also specifies the minimum requirements for pulling eyes, including
their geometry, strength, maximum line pull to which the pulling eye is intended to be subjected and
information for use to be provided by the manufacturer.
The pulling eyes covered by this International Standard are not intended to be subjected to a load when
the machine performs a service operation.
This International Standard applies to those pulling eyes prepared at, or attached to, ends of steel wire
ropes conforming to ISO 2408 and ISO 10425.
This International Standard does not apply to steel wire ropes with fibre cores.
This International Standard does not cover those separate end connection accessories, which slide over
the end of a rope and comprise an eye- and tubular-type braided rope, often referred to as a “wire rope
stocking” or “cable sock”.
