US Type Malleable Wire Rope Clip is produced according to Federal Specification FF-C-450 Type 1 Class 2. The clips can be zinc plated, hot-dip galvanized upon request. It’s also called wire rope clamp, U Clip, U Clamp, U Bolt, cable clamp, which is used to form the wire rope loop or eye.

Key Features Of Malleable Wire Rope Clip

1. Material: Malleable wire rope clips are typically made from malleable iron, which is a type of cast iron that has been heat-treated to increase its ductility and malleability. This material provides good strength and durability while maintaining some degree of flexibility.

2. U-Bolt Design: Like other wire rope clips, malleable wire rope clips have a U-bolt shape that allows the wire rope to pass through it.

3. Saddle Plate: The clips have a saddle plate that fits around the base of the U-bolt and sits on top of the wire rope.

4. Nuts: Two nuts are used to secure the U-bolt and saddle plate together, creating a tight grip on the wire rope.

The Installation

The installation of a U-clamp follows a specific process to ensure proper performance and safety. Here are the general steps:

1. Positioning: Position the U-clamp around the wire rope where the loop or connection is desired.

2. Saddle Placement: Place the saddle plate on top of the wire rope, centered over the U-bolt.

3. Nuts Installation: Screw the two nuts onto the threaded ends of the U-bolt and tighten them alternately. Ensure they are tightened to the specified torque, following the manufacturer’s guidelines.

4. Check Tightness: After installation, check the tightness of the nuts regularly, especially during the initial period of use and periodically thereafter, to ensure they remain secure.

It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines when installing malleable wire rope clips to ensure a proper and secure connection. Incorrect installation or the use of the wrong number of clips for a given wire rope diameter can compromise the strength and safety of the connection.
