FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
How is a wire rope clip correctly mounted?
The wire rope clip is mounted with the saddle against the load-bearing part of the wire and the U-bolt over the dead end. The nuts are tightened evenly to ensure correct clamping force.
How many wire rope clips are needed per attachment?
The number depends on the load and safety requirements, but at least two to three wire rope clips are typically used to create a secure connection.
Can A4 wire rope clips be used in saltwater environments?
Yes, A4 (AISI 316) is acid-proof stainless steel with high corrosion resistance and is suitable for marine environments.
Do wire rope clips need to be retightened after installation?
Yes, after initial loading, the nuts should be retightened as the wire rope may settle and reduce the clamping force.
