Wire Rope Clamp Installation Guide

1) Cast wire rope clamps are not recommended for lifting and should only be used in noncritical applications like fencing. They are made of 316 stainless steel which provides corrosion resistance. 2) Forged stainless steel clamps are recommended for more critical uses like tie downs and support lines due to their stronger forged construction. They are also made of 316 stainless steel. 3) A warning is given to always test assemblies for required strength before use and not to use clamps on coated rope unless the coating is removed.

Cast Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

Use in noncritical applications, such as fencing, where the strength of a forged clamp is not required. Install clamps so the saddle is on the long (live) end and
the U-bolt is on the short (dead) end. They’re also known as wire rope clips.
316 stainless steel clamps are the most corrosion resistant fittings we offer. They provide excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.
Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.

Forged Stainless Steel Single-Saddle Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting

(b)

Made of 316 stainless steel, these clamps are corrosion resistant. They must be oriented with the saddle on the long (live) end and U-bolt on the short (dead)
end. Their forged fabrication makes these clamps more reliable in critical applications such as tie downs and support lines. They’re also known as wire rope
clips.
Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.
