About SAHM SPLICE

We were established in 1961 and since then Sahm-Seilklemmen has produced and distributed products complementing the mechanical splicing of wire ropes. Today we are a leading supplier for wire rope end terminations to the rigging industry and in addition to ferrules, we can supply appropriate accessories and the most diverse services.

Our product range includes ferrules made from aluminium, copper, steel and stainless steel, all manufactured exclusively by us in Germany and USA. As a system supplier, we can provide you not only with the correct ferrule for your application, but also a large range of swaging machines, test beds, cutting & annealing machines and different tools.

Our in house machine building department ensures the highest quality standards for all our machines combined with the flexibility to react to your requirements quickly.

Since 2015 we operate under the name SAHM SPLICE GmbH. In cooperation with our affiliated firms SAHM SPLICE Ltd in Great Britain, SAHM France S.A.R.L. in France and various distribution partners we sell our products globally.
