Wire Rope Clamp

About Wire Rope Clamp

A wire rope clamp (also known as a wire rope clip or clamp) is a mechanical device used to secure the end of a wire rope to create a loop or to attach it to an object. The clamp works by fitting around the rope and securing it tightly with a U-bolt, nuts, and two steel clips that compress the wire rope in place.

Here™s a breakdown of the components:

1. U-bolt: The U-shaped piece that wraps around the wire rope.

2. Clips: These are usually two or more flat metal pieces that fit over the wire rope to secure it against the U-bolt.

3. Nuts: These fasten onto the ends of the U-bolt to tighten everything in place.

Wire rope clamps are crucial for creating secure loops and terminations in various industries, including construction, rigging, marine, and lifting

• Standard Wire Rope Clamps: Common for general purposes.

• Heavy-duty Clamps: Used in applications with higher loads or more demanding conditions.

• Non-corrosive Clamps: Made of materials like stainless steel or galvanized steel for marine or other corrosive environments.
