Fist Grip Clamps

The Fist Grip is a commonly used hardware component in rigging and lifting applications. It is specifically designed to secure the ends of wire ropes or cables together, providing a reliable and safe connection.

The Fist Grip typically consists of a metal body with a U-shaped groove or saddle, along with a threaded bolt or multiple bolts and nuts. The wire rope is placed within the U-shaped groove, and the bolts are tightened to compress the grip around the wire rope, creating a secure and firm hold.

The design of the Fist Grip ensures that the wire rope remains in place and prevents it from slipping or coming loose under tension. It is commonly used to create loops, terminate wire rope ends, or join two sections of wire rope together.

5. Wire Rope Ferrule: Similar to a thimble, the ferrule acts as a sturdy cap, reinforcing the rope’s end and preventing fraying. Think of it as a steel helmet for the rope’s tip.

Unleashing the Fist Grip Advantage:

H&F’s Fist Grips stand out from the crowd with their game-changing capabilities:

  • Rapid Deployment: Their single-bolt design eliminates the need for cumbersome multiple U-bolts, dramatically reducing installation time and effort.
  • Effortless Torqueing: The integrated nuts offer superior access and leverage for tightening, making the process smooth and efficient.
  • Unwavering Security: Their forged steel construction and superior grip ensure unmatched holding power, giving you complete peace of mind.
  • Extended Rope Life: The smooth, rounded profile minimizes friction and wear on the wire rope, extending its lifespan and maximizing value.

Fist Grip in Action:

H&F’s Fist Grips work their magic effortlessly:

  1. Threading with Ease: Simply pass the wire rope through the Fist Grip’s saddle.
  2. Swift Bolt Insertion: Slide the bolt through the saddle hole, ensuring the U-bolt rests securely on the rope.
  3. Effortless Tightening: Turn the nut clockwise with a wrench until the rope is firmly gripped.

The Synergy of Strength:

H&F’s Fist Grips play seamlessly with other crucial wire rope components:

  • Wire Rope Clips: While Fist Grips offer superior speed and efficiency, traditional clips remain valuable for specific applications or as backups.
  • Wire Rope Thimbles: When forming a loop, always use a thimble to protect the rope’s eye from crushing and ensure optimal lifespan.
  • Wire Rope Ferrules: Consider ferrules for added protection against fraying at the rope’s end, especially for synthetic ropes.
