1/4 in Stainless Steel Rigging Kit

The Dayton 1DKL2 kit supplies two U-bolt wire rope clips and one thimble formed from stainless steel with a bright finish. It is sized for 1/4 inch diameter wire rope and requires 4 3/4 inches of rope turn-back during assembly. A minimum torque of 12 ft-lb secures the connection for lifting, winching or general rigging tasks.

For Light-Duty Wire Rope Terminations

This kit suits installers who need a corrosion-resistant termination on 1/4 inch stainless wire rope for marine, architectural or light industrial rigging. Buyers working with larger diameters, different rope constructions or non-stainless materials should select hardware matched to those specifications.

Minimum Torque 12 ft-lb

Correct installation depends on tightening each U-bolt nut to at least 12 ft-lb to develop the rated holding strength. Under-torqued clips can slip under load while over-torquing risks damaging the rope or threads. A calibrated torque wrench is essential to meet this single critical value.
