Installation Advice and Data Sheet
How do you use a wire rope grip?
We recommend viewing our download sheet for full technical data.
Designed for use with stainless steel rope, not for use with plastic coated wire rope.
We recommend you prepare the wire rope ends to the manufacturers specification to ensure a clean and safe fitting.
Before installation it is best to check you have the correct size clamp to match your stainless steel wire rope. Incorrect matching could result in serious injury or damage.
The Correct Installation Method
Using One Grip
To create a simple loop or thimble loop, turn back the required amount or wire rope to create your loop. Starting approximately one grip base width in from the dead end of your rope place the U-bolt over the dead end and attach the grip base. Apply the fixing nuts - taking time to alternate between the two nuts as you tighten to ensure an even fixing.
Using Two Grips
For instances where you need to use 2 wire rope grips. Repeat the same instructions as above, placing the second grip as close to the thimble or loop as possible. Ensuring you place the U-bolt over the dead rope and fixing the grip base evenly.
Using Three Or More Wire Rope Grips
When using three or more clamps ensure you have spaced them evenly, making sure you have taken up any slack in the rope between the two end grips before tightening your additional rope grips.
Once fitted we recommend you load test your wire rope assembly with a load that is equal or greater than the expected load. Check that all the nuts are secure.
