Wire Rope Clips may also be referred to as Wire Rope Clamps, Cable Clamps, Wire Clamps, Wire Clip

fastenerrigging.com has a full line of wire rope clips in galvanized, zinc plated, and stainless steel finishes to best suit your job’s requirements. A wire rope clip, also called a clamp, cable clamp, wire rope clamp, U-Clip, U-Clamp, is used to fix the loose end of the loop back to the wire rope. It usually consists of a U-shaped bolt, a forged or cast saddle and two nuts. The two layers of wire rope are placed in the U-bolt. The saddle is then fitted over the ropes on to the bolt (the saddle includes two holes to fit to the U-bolt). The nuts secure the arrangement in place.

Wire rope is an extremely versatile mechanical device that can be used to help support and move an object or load. Whether for use on cranes or for other lifting applications, it’s important to have a solid understanding of the rigging components that are being used to attach to and lift a load.

Wire rope clamps - also known as wire rope clips or wire clips - are used to connect two cable ends together or make a wire rope eye. They are less permanent alternatives to swage sleeves and an economical way to make cable assemblies in the field. Composed of a u-shaped bolt, a saddle (metal base), and two nuts, wire rope clips capture the two rope components between the u-bolt and the saddle and tighten the connection with the nuts.

Have you ever wondered how to correctly install wire rope clips and what the phrase "Never saddle a dead horse." means? Below you will find our informative video explaining these things.If you need help selecting the best wire rope clip for your project, head over to our YouTube Channel or Wire Rope Clip page for more videos and information.

Wire rope clip is otherwise known as a wire rope clamp, wire cable clamp, wire clamp, wire clip, U-bolt, etc. It is widely used for making eye-loop connections or join two wire rope cable ends together. The traditional styles of wire rope clips usually have three components: a U-shaped bolt, a forged or cast iron saddle, and two nuts.

A clamp load, also referred to as a preload, is the force that holds a joint together. In a bolted joint, the compression occurs on the surface of impact between two parts of the joint, creating a clamping force. When used in bolted joints, this creates tension that keeps the bolt together and makes it stronger and more reliable. If the clamp load of a bolted joint is too high, it could lead to wear and tear on the threads. If it is too low, the bolt may loosen.

Securing a connection in an application can be more complicated than it appears. To the average person, a clamp is simple – turn the screw and the clamp tightens up. But when you break down the interactions and try to quantify individual contributions, things aren’t as simple as they appear.

If the clamp load of a bolted joint is too high, it could lead to wear and tear on the threads. If it is too low, the bolt may loosen.

When a bolt is tightened into a mating threaded part, the two components interact by pulling each other together. This force is called clamp load and is what keeps the joint from coming apart. Provided that the force pulling it together is greater than the outside forces (service loads) that are trying to pull it apart, no problem will result with the attachment. Unfortunately, friction plays a large part in this system. Of the 100% of torque applied to fasteners to pull them together, 50% is lost in underhead bearing face friction and 40% is lost through friction between the mating threads.

When it comes to handling different material load types in a safe and efficient manner, many opt to use durable lifting clamps to complete the job. These tools come in a wide range of makes catered for specific materials and freight sizes. However, when choosing the right lifting clamp, knowing which specifications you need is crucial for safe and proper usage.Read on to learn more about the different factors to consider when choosing a lifting clamp, as well as the different types we offer through U.S. Cargo Control.

Far too often, wire rope and cable products fail to last nearly as long as expected. While wire ropes and cables constructed from low-quality materials can sometimes contribute to premature failure, often it is because the wrong sheaves and pulleys are used in the application. Thankfully, Strand Core provides a radius guide to ensure you are pairing the suitable sheaves and pulleys for your wire rope and cable products. Read more to learn about the best size sheaves and pulleys for wire and cable.

Wire rope sheave are widely used in lifting the transport machinery, port machinery, shipbuilding, grab, wire rope sheave, construction and other industries.According to texture and molding way it is divided into casting iron pulley,casting steel pulley, rolling pulley, weld pulley, forged pulley, and nylon pulley.
