THE FLEXIBILITY OF A ZIP CLIP RIZE DEVICE
Figure of Eight Suspension
The KL200 can be used to make a figure of eight suspension, using just one device.
Clip Top and Bottom
Zip-Clip’s RIZE system offers the flexibility to customise your own drop lengths and is ideal for long drops with no limit on length.
A device is used to anchor the wire rope to the soffit/ceiling structure and another to attach to the fixture/application
Inline Joint
By following the arrows on each side of the Zip-Clip device, an inline joint can be created. This can be used to extend a drop length that is too short. Ensure the exit tails are 15 cm.
All Round Loop
A Zip-Clip device can be used to create an all-round loop by joining two free ends of wire rope together. This can be coupled with a fixing or fixings of choice in order to create one full suspension.
Stop End Bracket
As each Zip-Clip device has a flat face across its smallest axis, it can be used as a stopper unit by feeding the wire rope through just one channel. Adjustment can be made by the key-free release mechanism.
By incorporating an optional penny washer/channel nut above each device, the supporting surface area can be increased.
This method is ideal for multi-tier trapeze drops offering a quick, cost-effective, and simple solution which can be used in two different guises, see diagram.
Installers must ensure that 10-15 cm of wire rope exits through the back of each device once locked off, known as the dead wire.
MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDATIONS
The Zip-Clip system is designed to support STATIC loads only.
Dynamic and shock loads must be avoided and can greatly increase the overall weight of the product being suspended and therefore compromise the safe working load of the suspension.
To ensure integrity and safety of the system only Zip-Clip wire rope should be used.
For specialist applications, such as corrosive environments,
please contact Zip-Clip Technical Department.
INSTALLATION FACTORS
Installers must pay attention to the nature of the installation process.
Certain installations, such as cable pulling, will introduce dynamic forces onto the supports. Where this might be the case, it is advised to select heavier duty systems.
Ball Strikes – Where this may be a potential factor, such as installations within sports halls, heavier duty wire rope supports should be utilised to offer maximum resistance to dynamic shock loads.
Zip-Clip cannot guarantee its systems against the effects of ball strikes.
