Drop Forged Style Stainless Steel Wire Rope Clip
This drop forged stainless steel wire rope clip is designed for creating secure wire rope terminations and splices in corrosive or outdoor environments. Manufactured from stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance and long service life, these clips are commonly used to form wire rope eyes or connect two sections of wire rope together in marine, industrial, architectural, and general rigging applications.
Corrosion-Resistant Wire Rope Termination Solution
Wire rope clips provide a simple and effective method for terminating wire rope without specialized swaging equipment. They are frequently used to create looped wire rope assemblies, temporary rigging setups, guardrail systems, marine rigging, and other applications where adjustability and field installation are important.
To achieve the proper holding strength, wire rope clips should always be installed using the recommended number of clips and wire rope overlap based on the rope diameter being used.
Proper Wire Rope Clip Installation
Correct installation is critical to the performance and safety of any wire rope assembly. A commonly used industry reminder is:
"Never saddle a dead horse."
This means the saddle portion of the clip should always be installed on the live end (load-bearing side) of the wire rope, while the U-bolt is placed on the dead end (terminated side). Proper clip orientation helps maintain wire rope strength and reduces the risk of assembly failure.
Standards & Construction
The dimensions of this drop forged wire rope clip meet Federal Specification FF-C-450D, Type 1 requirements.
