SecureFix Direct Wire Rope Clamp Grip Clips - 6mm - Silver

These grips are used to create secure loops or eyes in 6mm wire rope for general-purpose applications such as securing lines, creating anchor points, or reinforcing cable ends. They are *not* for lifting.

No, these wire rope clamp grips are explicitly stated as not suitable for lifting applications. Using them for lifting could be dangerous and lead to equipment failure.

These grips are specifically designed for 6mm diameter wire rope.

Each pack contains two wire rope clamp grip clips.

You will need a spanner of the appropriate size to tighten the nuts on the U-bolt.

Yes, they are zinc-plated, which provides resistance against corrosion and helps them withstand outdoor conditions.

Form the loop, place the grip with the U-bolt on one side and the saddle on the other, and tighten the nuts firmly with a spanner. Re-check tightness periodically, especially after initial use.

Ensure the nuts on the U-bolt are fully tightened with a spanner. Check that the wire rope is doubled back correctly and that the saddle is bearing evenly on the rope. Ensure you are using the correct size grip for your wire rope diameter.

This is typically surface rust on the zinc plating. Clean with a dry cloth. If corrosion is significant, the grip may need to be replaced, especially if structural integrity is compromised. Store in a dry environment when not in use.

Ensure the threads on the U-bolt and nuts are clean and free from debris. Apply a small amount of lubricant if necessary, but avoid over-lubrication which can reduce grip friction. Ensure the spanner is the correct size to prevent stripping the nut.
