National Mfg N248-302 Zinc Cable Clamp 5/16 in 10 Pack

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N248-302 is a 5/16 inch zinc wire cable clamp engineered for forming a secure eye or loop on wire rope. The base of each saddle is grooved to conform tightly to the wire rope profile, increasing grip strength and reducing slippage under load. Sold in a boxed loose pack of 10 units, this clamp is a standard hardware component used across rigging, cable management, and general contractor applications. The zinc construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for light-duty outdoor and indoor installations.

This clamp is suited for residential and commercial job sites where wire rope terminations are required. Common applications include securing safety cables, forming anchor loops, and creating fixed-end connections in light rigging setups. The 5/16 inch sizing matches standard wire rope of the same diameter. Contractors, electricians, and general tradespeople typically stock these in bulk for ongoing project needs.

Key Features

• Grooved saddle base forms around wire rope for a stronger, more secure grip
• Designed specifically for creating eyes or loops on wire rope ends
• Zinc construction for corrosion resistance in light-duty outdoor use
• 5/16 inch size fits standard wire rope of matching diameter
• Pack of 10 units for efficient stocking and multi-point installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement and general-use clamp compatible with 5/16 inch wire rope used in light rigging and cable management applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should follow standard rigging practices and applicable local codes. Ensure wire rope is fully seated in the grooved saddle before tightening fasteners. Never apply clamps to a wire rope that is under load. A qualified tradesperson should verify that clamp quantity and spacing meet the load requirements of the specific application.
