Product Specifications
Highlighted Features:
- Manufactured from forged steel.
- Hot-dip galvanized coating.
- Minimum recommended torque: N.m
- Maximum recommended torque: N.m
- Recommended for 5/16" guy wire.
- Recommended for use by clamping: 3 pieces.
- Ideal for heavy loads.
- Recommended for suspension or fixing of guyed towers, masts, poles, and similar structures.
- Use the same size clips for the same size steel cable.
- Never use malleable iron clips in critical applications, heavy-duty service, or for suspended loads, such as slings, suspension lines, guy lines, drag lines, cargo fastening, scaffolding, etc.
- Malleable iron staples are for terminations only in:
- Only with regular right-hand twisted cable.
- Only for light-duty and non-critical applications such as light loads, handrails, lattices, area protections, etc.
- Apply an initial load to check the assembly. This load should be equal to or greater than the weight it will support. Then check and retighten the nuts to the recommended torque.
Hook installation method:
1. Run the cable the necessary length around the thimble, and install the first hook at a distance equal to the width of its base from the extreme tip of the cable. Tighten the nuts alternately to the specified torque.
2. When only two hooks are necessary, install the second as close as possible to the bend in the cable or thimble, and tighten the nuts alternately to the specified torque. When more than two dogs are required, install the second hook as close as possible to the bend in the cable or thimble and turn the nuts firmly without tightening.
3. Install all hooks that are necessary between the first two with equal spaces between each one, and located in the same position. Ensure that the nuts of all hooks are tightened according to the specified torque.
4. Finally, apply a load equal to or greater than the one you expect to use to test the assembly. Then check, and if necessary, retighten the nuts according to the recommended torque using a torque wrench.
