About this product

The Beaver G316 Stainless Steel Wire Rope Grip 8mm is a saddle clamp for forming terminations and eyes in 8mm wire rope. It takes the largest wire in the range at 8mm, with an M8 thread on the U-bolt, 41mm across, 27mm wide and 33.5mm high. Each grip weighs 0.08kg.

Made from Grade 316 stainless steel, also called marine grade, so it holds up in salt water and other harsh corrosive conditions far better than lower grades. That makes it a sensible pick for boats, coastal structures, and food or pharmaceutical processing work. Note this is a fitting only, not rated for lifting, so keep it out of any load bearing rig.
