    These must be oriented with the saddle on the long (live) end and U-bolt on the short (dead) end. Their forged fabrication makes these clamps more reliable in critical applications such as tie downs and support lines. They’re also known as wire rope clips. Clamps have a thick coating for corrosion resistance.
    Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Rope Clamps. Crosby Forged Double-Saddle Wire Rope Clamps—Not for Lifting.
    These clamps apply equal pressure without crimping or crushing the wire rope, so orientation doesn't matter. They provide a saddle for both the long (live) and the short (dead) end of the wire rope. Their forged fabrication makes these clamps more reliable in critical applications such as tie downs and support lines. Also known as fist grip wire rope clips.
    Warning: Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.
