Wire Rope Clip/Clamp, Forged Steel for 5/16" Cable, Stainless Steel.

Key Features

• Made of stainless steel.
• Recommended for 5/16" guy wire (SRET516CAM or SRET516DA)
• Recommended usage per tie-off: 3 pieces
• Ideal for heavy loads
• Recommended for suspension or fastening of guyed towers, masts, poles, and similar structures.

Safety Notes

• Use the same size clip for the same wire rope size.
• Never use malleable iron clips in critical, heavy-duty applications, or for overhead loads, such as slings, suspension lines, guide lines, drag lines, load securement, scaffolding, etc.
• Malleable iron clips are for making terminations:
• Only for light-duty and non-critical applications such as light loads, handrails, trellises, area protections, etc.
• Apply an initial load to test the assembly. This load must be equal to or greater than the weight it will support. Then, check and re-tighten the nuts to the recommended torque.

Wire Rope Clip Installation Method

1. Loop the wire rope the necessary length around the thimble and install the first clip at a distance from the dead end of the wire equal to the width of its base. Tighten the nuts alternately to the specified torque.
2. When only two clips are necessary, install the second one as close as possible to the loop or thimble, and tighten the nuts alternately to the specified torque. When more than two clips are required, install the second clip as close as possible to the loop or thimble and turn the nuts firmly without tightening them.
3. Install all necessary clips between the first two with equal spacing between each, and located in the same orientation. Ensure the nuts of all clips are tightened according to the specified torque.
4. Finally, apply a load equal to or greater than the expected load to test the assembly. Immediately check, and if necessary, re-tighten the nuts to the recommended torque using a torque wrench.
