The Crosby® G-429 Fist Grip® Wire Rope Clip provides secure and dependable wire rope terminations for demanding rigging applications. These heavy-duty clips support lifting, tensioning, securing, and general wire rope installation tasks across many industries.
Crosby designed the G-429 Fist Grip® Clip to eliminate common installation mistakes associated with traditional U-bolt wire rope clips. Unlike standard U-bolt designs, the Fist Grip® Clip cannot install upside down. This design helps ensure proper orientation during every installation and improves overall safety and reliability.
The Crosby® Fist Grip® design applies to wire rope clip sizes from 3/16-inch through 5/8-inch. Larger sizes from 3/4-inch through 1-1/2-inch retain the original Crosby design. Both configurations deliver strong holding power and dependable performance under heavy loads.
Each Crosby G-429 features forged steel saddles for superior strength and durability. The forged construction withstands demanding conditions and repeated loading cycles. Crosby also applies a galvanized finish to protect the clip from corrosion and environmental exposure.
These wire rope clips provide strong holding efficiency across multiple wire rope sizes. Sizes from 3/16-inch through 7/8-inch achieve 80 percent efficiency based on catalog wire rope breaking strength. Sizes from 1-inch through 1-1/2-inch achieve 90 percent efficiency for increased holding performance.
The Crosby® G-429 Fist Grip® Wire Rope Clip meets or exceeds ASME B30.26 requirements. Additionally, Crosby also maintains strict standards for material traceability, fatigue resistance, and impact durability. These quality controls help ensure reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
As a result, contractors, rigging professionals, marine operators, and industrial crews trust Crosby products for dependable lifting and securing solutions. The G-429 Fist Grip® Wire Rope Clip combines strength, safety, corrosion resistance, and installation efficiency in one rugged product.
