Wire Rope Clips
DIN 1142 Wire Rope Clip Malleable
A malleable iron wire rope clip to DIN 1142 standard, with a U-bolt stamped from round steel. It secures wire rope ends in static applications such as power lines, communication cables, and band fastening. The clip features a cast body, two saddles, and a bolt and nut set to clamp the rope. Sizes range from 3mm to 40mm in wire rope diameter, with zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance.

How It Compares With The Alternatives
An honest read on where this pattern wins and where another one would serve you better.
| Alternative | Honest Trade Off |
|---|---|
| Drop forged steel wire rope clip | Malleable iron is lighter and less expensive but has lower impact strength; not suitable for dynamic or high-vibration applications |
| Stainless steel wire rope clip | Stainless steel offers better corrosion resistance but is more expensive and not required for most static indoor or dry environments |
| Galvanized steel wire rope clip | Galvanized steel has similar corrosion protection but may have less consistent coating thickness than zinc-plated malleable iron |
| Non-standard or generic clip | DIN 1142 ensures dimensional consistency and compliance with international standards, reducing risk of improper fit or failure |
Use Guide
How To Use And Inspect DIN 1142 Wire Rope Clip Malleable
- Match the clip size to the wire rope diameter using the DIN 1142 table
- Install two or more clips with proper spacing: at least 6 times the rope diameter between clips
- Place the saddle on the live end of the rope and the U-bolt on the dead end
- Tighten bolts gradually and evenly to avoid rope deformation
- Inspect the clip regularly for signs of loosening, corrosion, or deformation
- Replace the clip if the body shows cracks or the U-bolt is bent
- Do not reuse clips that have been subjected to load or impact

Answers
DIN 1142 Wire Rope Clip Malleable FAQ
What is the difference between DIN 1142 and other wire rope clips?
DIN 1142 specifies a malleable iron body and stamped U-bolt with defined dimensions and tolerances. It is designed for static applications, unlike drop forged clips used in dynamic lifting.
Can I use this clip for lifting or dynamic loads?
No. DIN 1142 clips are for static applications only. For lifting or dynamic loads, use a clip with a higher design factor and drop forged construction.
What is the maximum wire rope diameter this clip fits?
The size range is from 3mm to 40mm in wire rope diameter, with dimensions provided in the table for each size.
Is there a Material Test Certificate available?
Yes. A Material Test Certificate to EN 10204 3.1 is supplied with orders on request.
Can I get custom packaging or branding?
Yes. Custom carton and pallet configurations, private label marking, and OEM packaging are available.
How are the clips packed for export?
Clips are packed in cartons, then palletized. We can configure the carton count and pallet pattern to suit your warehouse or shipping needs.
What finish options are available?
Standard finish is zinc plated. Custom finishes include powder coating and electrophoretic black on request.
