Value Collection 18500 Wire Rope Clip 1/8 in Forged Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 18500 is a forged steel wire rope clip designed to secure wire rope terminations and form load-bearing loops, eyes, and end connections. Constructed from forged steel with a galvanized finish, this clip provides corrosion resistance suited for both indoor and outdoor applications. It is sized for 1/8-inch rope diameter and is installed by rigging professionals, maintenance technicians, and qualified tradespeople wherever wire rope assemblies require a reliable, mechanically fastened termination. A minimum of two clips is required per connection to achieve a rated holding capacity.

This clip is a standard hardware component used in light-duty rigging, wire rope assemblies, guy wire terminations, and general industrial or commercial fastening applications. Typical use cases include securing rope ends on small cable assemblies, antenna guy wires, and tensioning systems. Each package contains one clip, and multiple clips are required per assembly as dictated by the rope diameter and load requirements of the application.

Installation Notes

Wire rope clips must be installed by personnel familiar with rigging hardware and safe load practices. Always power down or de-tension the cable assembly before servicing or replacing clips. Follow the manufacturer and applicable ASME B30 or OSHA rigging guidelines for proper clip spacing, orientation, and the minimum number of clips required per connection. Never install clips with the U-bolt saddle bearing on the live load side of the rope.
