Gripple Lockable The Gripple Lockable is ideal for terminating cable when bracing and suspending static and dynamic loads. ADVANTAGES • Strong, fast and easy to use • Gripple Lockable has additional ‘locking screws’ to secure the wedge in place and allow minimal loads to be applied • Safety factor of 4:1 on all Gripple Lockables • For 1⁄8” (3 mm) version, use cable with a 7x7 steel-core construction • For 5⁄32” (4 mm) to 3⁄8” (10 mm) versions, use cable with a 7x19 steel-core construction

For single use only, DO NOT re-use. Locking screws must always be fully inserted AFTER tensioning. Never tension with the locking screws in place. Always leave 7 ½” of tail wire protruding from the Gripple Lockable unit to allow for tensioning. For use with steel core cable only. Not suitable for fiber-core. Do not use for lifting, such as crane or pulley applications. When installing the Gripple Lockable unit, the distance between the structure and the unit should equal or exceed that of the structure. Gripple Lockable units are cable diameter specific. Load ratings are based on vertical suspension. When hanging at an angle, the load capacity is reduced. Do not use at an angle in excess of 60° from vertical, as the load rating is reduced by 50%.
