Gripple Lockable - Innovative lockable system for securing wire rope - quickly! The Lockable Gripple makes catenary [see below] and bracing wire rope installation easier and faster. Working on the same principle as the standard Gripple, but with the additional feature of locking screws for extra security under outdoor conditions.
• Simple push fit assembly, with Automatic locking wedges.
• Easy tensioning.
• Secure locking screws.
• The Lockable Gripple can be used with galvanised steel core and stainless steel core wire rope.
• Ideal for overhead catenary wires* and promenade lighting*, aerial and marquee bracing, shade cloth bracing, tree bracing, & Exhibition Hall displays.
Wire Diameter: 5 mm
Wire Construction: 7x19
Vertical WLL: 400 kg
Bag Quantity: 5
Box Quantity: 16 x bags of 5 (80 gripples)
Note: Safety factor on the Gripple Lockable is 4:1 . Locking screws should always be used. Never tension with locking screws in place. Do not re-use, for single use only. Always ensure 200 mm tail is left protruding from the Gripple prior to tensioning. When installing around structure, the distance between the Gripple and the structure should equal or exceed the width of the structure. Load ratings are based on a vertical suspension. When hanging at angles the load ratings are reduced. Do not use at an angle exceeding 60° as the load rating is reduced by 50%. Do not use for lifting, such as crane or pulley applications.
If being used for catenary purposes, a full understanding of the forces imposed by applying weight to wires stretched between two horizontal points is needed. Very high loads can be imposed by adding weight to long wires stretched between two points. The loads can be greatly reduced by allowing the wire to sag by 10° or more from the horizontal. If in doubt seek the advice of a structural engineer. Use a 5.5 mm nutspinner to lock off the Gripples from 2-5 mm and an 8 mm nutspinner to lock the 6 mm version
