Compatibility and Fitment
You can use this 13mm grip on common 6×7, 6×19 and similar wire ropes for general service tasks. To form an eye around a thimble, place several grips one grip-length apart and tighten them evenly. After the rope has been loaded once, check the nuts again and re-torque as required. This product corresponds to Argomarine Part Number 162014.
Compliance and Safety
Always use wire rope grips for non-lifting applications. For safety-critical terminations, choose swaged fittings or forged clip systems that meet the relevant standards. Install the saddle on the live end, use the right number of grips for the rope diameter, and tighten each nut to the specified torque. Inspect the assembly regularly, and replace any component that shows corrosion, distortion or thread damage.
Marine Applications
• Creating general wire terminations on lifeline gates and temporary stays
• Fastening control cables and lanyards in non-lifting situations
• Clamping guy wires for awnings, shade structures and antennas
• Workshop and trailer tasks where quick, adjustable fastening is useful
