Ball clevis is one kind of string hardware that connects the socket insulator or socket tongue by the ball head. Ball clevis is also called clevis eye.

According to the different shapes, there is another type called Y clevis. It’s because the structure is like the letter “Y”. On the one hand of the ball clevis is a ball head. On the other hand, there is a steel pin or hex bolt going through the two holes of the ball clevis. So that, there is space for the U clevis to connect to the ball clevis.

There are two different ways to make the ball clevis. In a market that requires low tension strength, the ball clevis is made by casting. While, in a market that requires high strength of more than 45kn, the ball clevis is drop forged.

The final process for the clevis eye is hot dip galvanized according to ISO 1461.

To keep the size of the ball clevis accurate, QC department use “GO” Gauges and “NOT GO” gauges to control the tolerances on size.
