Zinc Plated Malleable Wire Rope Clips
These zinc plated malleable wire rope clips provide an economical solution for creating wire rope terminations and eye assemblies in light-duty applications. Manufactured to meet Federal Specification FF-C-450D, Type 1, Class 2 requirements, these clips are commonly used for securing wire rope loops, splicing wire rope sections, and other general-purpose non-critical wire rope installations.
Economical Wire Rope Terminations for Light-Duty Applications
Wire rope clips are used to form wire rope eyes by looping the rope back onto itself or to connect two sections of wire rope together. Their simple design allows for field installation without specialized swaging equipment, making them a practical option for maintenance, utility, agricultural, and general-purpose projects.
The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and low-corrosion environments while helping protect the clip from rust and surface wear.
Proper Installation Matters
A common rule throughout the rigging industry is:
"Never saddle a dead horse."
This means the saddle portion of the wire rope clip should always be installed on the live end (load-bearing side) of the wire rope, while the U-bolt is installed on the dead end (terminated side). Proper installation helps maximize holding strength and overall assembly performance.
Important Safety Warning
Warning: Malleable wire rope clips should never be used for overhead lifting applications. For lifting, hoisting, or other critical load-handling applications, use wire rope clips specifically rated and approved for those uses.
