Ferrules are important for making handles stronger by preventing splitting, often on tools.

Strengthening Handles

Usually made of metal, ferrules provide a durable safeguard for handles.

Metal Protection

Although sometimes decorative, the primary function of a ferrule is utilitarian.

Ferrules in cables ensure cords are neatly fastened and organized to avoid damage.

A ferrule can protect ropes or cables from wear and tear, especially at contact points.

Though often metal, ferrules for cords can also be made of plastic or rubber.
