National Mfg/spectrum Brands Hhi N248-286 Zinc Cable Clamp

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N248-286 is a zinc wire cable clamp sized for 3/16 inch wire rope. It is designed specifically for forming an eye or loop at the end of wire rope, a common termination method in rigging, safety lines, and securing applications. The saddle bases are grooved to conform to the profile of the wire rope, providing a stronger mechanical grip than smooth-faced clamps. Each package contains 20 clamps. This hardware is installed by riggers, contractors, and maintenance professionals working with wire rope assemblies.

This cable clamp is suited for light-duty to medium-duty wire rope termination work in construction, facility maintenance, marine, and general industrial settings. It is appropriate for residential and commercial applications where a secure looped termination on 3/16 inch wire rope is required. The grooved saddle design makes it a reliable choice when consistent grip and proper rope forming are priorities during installation.

Installation Notes

Wire rope clamps should be installed by qualified riggers or tradespeople familiar with proper wire rope termination procedures. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended number of clamps per termination and correct saddle orientation — never saddle a dead end. Torque fasteners evenly and re-check after initial load is applied. Inspect clamps and rope regularly for wear, corrosion, or deformation.
