* Based on clean, unlubricated
threads.
Table above shows
minimum torque required to reach maximum holding power of wire rope
clip.
**U-bolts and Nuts
zinc plated. |

Sizes 1/8" through
1.1/2" also
available in DOMESTIC.
|
RIGHT WAY
FOR MAXIMUM ROPE STRENGTH
|
|
When
using U-bolt clips, extreme care must be exercised to make certain
that they are attached correctly. The correct way to attach U-bolts
is shown above; the "U" section is in contact with the rope's "dead
end" and is clear of the thimble. The "live end", carrying the load,
is gripped by the saddle of the clip.
|
REMEMBER: "Never saddle a dead horse."
Also, the tightening
and retightening of the nuts must be accomplished as required. See
instructions on page 28.
