The efficiency rating of a properly prepared loop or thimble-eye termination for clip sizes 1/8” through 7/8” is 80%, and for sizes 1” through 3-1/2” is 90%. Next, check and retighten nuts to recommended torque (See Table 1).Įfficiency ratings for wire rope end terminations are based upon the minimum breaking force of wire rope. This load should be of equal or greater weight than loads expected in use. Apply first load to test the assembly.Do not use with plastic coated wire rope.Prepare wire rope end termination only as instructed.Match the same size clip to the same size wire rope.Read and understand these instructions before using clips.Failure to read, understand, and follow these instructions may cause death or serious injury.Look for the Red-U-Bolt ®, your assurance of Genuine Crosby Clips.

Importantly, these wire rope clips meet other critical performance requirements, including fatigue life, impact properties and material traceability, not addressed by ASME B30.26.

Meets or exceeds all requirements of ASME B30.26 including identification, ductility, design factor, proof load and temperature requirements.

Clip sizes up through 1-1/2″ have rolled threads.

All Clips are individually bagged or tagged with proper application instructions and warning information.

Sizes 1/8″ through 2-1/2″ and 3″ have forged bases.

Entire Clip-Galvanized to resist corrosive and rusting action.

Based on the catalog breaking strength of wire rope, Crosby wire rope clips have an efficiency rating of 80% for 1/8″ – 7/8″ sizes, and 90% for sizes 1″ through 3-1/2″.

Each base has a Product Identification Code (PIC) for material traceability, the name CROSBY or CG, and a size forged into it.

Crosby Clips, all sizes 1/4″ and larger, meet the performance requirements of Federal Specification FF-C-450 TYPE 1 CLASS 1, except for those provisions required of the contractor.
