1-inch zinc-plated malleable wire rope clips
These clips form a mechanical loop at the end of one-inch diameter wire rope. The five-pack supplies enough hardware for multiple terminations or spare fittings on a job site. Riggers and maintenance crews use them when a swaged or spliced eye is not practical. Each clip uses a malleable iron body with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance.
Practical limits of the U-bolt clip method
Clip efficiency depends on correct torque, rope construction and the number of clips spaced along the dead end. Over-tightening can damage the rope strands, while under-tightening allows the rope to slip under load. The malleable iron body is not rated for overhead lifting where forged steel fittings are required by code. California Proposition 65 warns that the product contains a chemical known to cause cancer.
Installation notes and common errors
Place the U-bolt over the dead end and the saddle on the live end, then tighten nuts evenly to the manufacturer's specified torque. A frequent mistake is reversing the saddle and U-bolt, which crushes the live rope and reduces holding power. Another error is using too few clips for the rope diameter, leading to pull-out. Inspect all clips before each use and retighten after the first load cycle.
