U-Bolt-It distributes the finest quality domestic and import wire rope cables, wire rope clips, wire rope cable assemblies, and cable lanyards used for construction, marine & off-shore, and other industrial applications. Our wire rope products are made from single wires that are twisted into main strands. The most standard constructions of wire rope are 1x7, 1x19, 7x7, and 7x19 which represents (# of strands by # of wires in each strand). Wire rope and wire rope assemblies are available in steel and stainless steel. It is available in plain steel, galvanized steel, zinc-plated steel, and nylon coated

Wire Rope Thimbles are used for distributing weight evenly around the loop, and protect wire rope assemblies from damage and wear. Zinc-plated steel thimbles provide good corrosion resistance in most environments. For better corrosion resistance, choose hot-dipped galvanized steel thimbles that have a thicker zinc coating.

Type 304 and 316 stainless steel thimbles exhibit excellent corrosion resistance. Wire Rope Clips are malleable iron clips are good where corrosion is not a factor.

Forged steel clips are stronger than malleable iron clips and is also good for applications where corrosion is not a factor. Hand held models are sued to cut smaller wire rope diameters including safety wire, truck and rail security cables. Hydraulic wire rope cutters are made to cut the toughest cables, clean and without affecting the roundness of the wire rope. Impact cutters are portable, easy to operate, and are actuated by using a hammer and striking a few hard blows to effect a perfect cut.

Wire rope clips, sometimes referred to as u bolt clamps, u bolt clips, u clips, u clamps or cable clamps, are used to secure the loose end of a wire rope when forming an eye. Wire rope u clips have a u-bolt that is secured into a saddle by two nuts. Wire rope assemblies almost always require two, or more wire rope clamps to secure the wire rope properly. When using wire rope cable clamps to form an eye in a wire rope, the working load limit of the wire rope is reduced by about 20%.

Here at Tri-State Rigging Equipment we pride ourselves on providing only the highest quality wire rope clamps from only the most reputable manufacturers. We can provide you with any wire rope clip on the market so, if you are unable to find what you are looking for, or if you don’t know exactly what you need, call or email our sales team to speak with a rigging product specialist.

Wire rope cable clamps come in a variety of materials ranging from galvanized and zinc plated steel, to stainless steel. The two most important different types, however, are drop forged and malleable wire rope u bolt clips.

Drop forged wire rope clips are more heavy duty than malleable rope clips and can therefore be used for more heavy-duty rigging applications. In addition, they are galvanized with a heavy coating of zinc that resists the corrosion and abuse found in rugged work environments. Wire rope cable clamps of every type are not designed to be used in an overhead lift but drop forged wire rope u bolt clamps can be used to suspend an overhead load. This makes wire rope cable clamps ideal for use with:

Regarding the first question, if the load is being moved, wire rope clips are not to be used. If the load is being held in place, heavy-duty drop forged wire rope clips can be used. For the second question, if the load is near the ground, malleable wire rope clips may be used, as their lighter duty design is more than enough for the job. On the other hand, if the load is being suspended above the ground, heavier duty drop forged wire rope clamps must be used.

In the rigging and lifting industry there is a common saying that is used to remember the correct way to use wire rope u clips: “Never saddle a dead horse.” This means that the saddle of the u clamp should always be in contact with the live side of the wire rope rather than the dead side. The dead side of the wire rope is the side of the eye that has the cut end. The dead end is attached to the live end of the wire rope to form an eye and it is imperative that the saddle be on the live side of the wire rope.

Tri-State Rigging Equipment is a service provider and distributor for all wire rope cable clamps, and u bolt clips for rigging serving clients from coast to coast, Canada, Mexico and especially focused in the states of Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, South Carolina, Florida, and Oklahoma.

Anchoring a fixture or moving a load? Lexco® Cable has the right eye bolt to get the job done. Eye bolts are available in various styles to meet the needs of any application. We offer both domestic (Made in the USA) and imported eye bolts.

Our inventory includes zinc plated, galvanized, and stainless steel eye bolts. All varieties are available with machine threads or lag threads. Lag threads are preferable for anchoring wire ropes and aircraft cables to wood. Our eye bolt selection includes short-shank/machinery eye bolts which meet mil spec MS51937.

Our eye bolts are available in forged or formed-and-bent construction—forged are stronger for heavier loads; formed-and-bent eye bolts are intended for light duty applications. Forged eye bolts are available with shoulders if you have a mounting surface or load you require the eye bolt to be flush with.

All our eye bolts are available in bulk quantities, or as part of completed cable assemblies. We provide cable assembly fabrication services to save you time and money in additional production costs.

Turn back the specified amount of rope from the thimble. Apply the first clip one base width from the dead end of the wire rope (U-bolt over dead end - live end rests in clip saddle). Tighten nuts evenly to recommended torque.

When these instructions require more than two clips- space additional clips equally between the first two - take up rope slack - tighten all nuts evenly on all clips to recommended torque.

Apply the initial load and retighten nuts to the recommended torque. Rope will stretch and shrink in diameter when loads are applied. Inspect periodically and retighten. The tightening torque values shown are based upon the threads being clean, dry, and free of lubrication.

These clips are intended for use in making eye termination in right regular lay wire rope. Such an assembly is for non-critical light duty use where a small applied load is expected such as hand rails, fencing, guard lines, etc.
