Product description

Black wire rope clamp egg shape for 2-6mm ropes

Our black matte colored egg shape clamps consist of two metal shells and a countersunk screw and are used for light end connections for wire ropes.

Tested quality: the black Eiform wire rope clamps can be used for 2mm - 6mm thick steel ropes. Due to the low breaking forces, we recommend using Eiform clamps for decorative purposes only. Using calibrated universal tensile testing machines, the following minimum breaking forces of Eiform clamps could be determined:

  • 2mm: 14kg
  • 3mm: 30kg
  • 4mm: 35kg
  • 5mm: 40kg
  • 6mm: 61kg

Attention. The breaking forces of the black egg-shaped clamps are given without safety factor. Please add at least a 3-fold safety factor for your application. The detailed test reports can be found under "Test reports" on the article page.

Easy handling: With the help of a screwdriver, the countersunk screw with both metal shells can be quickly fastened to the steel rope, thus creating a rope end connection. To avoid injury, the "dead rope end" can disappear into the Eiform rope clamp.

Important safety note: Rope end connections with egg-shaped clamps are not suitable for higher loads. For higher working loads, please use hydraulically pressed wire ropes, wire rope clamps according to DIN 741 or press clamps according to DIN EN 13411.3 from us.

Easy extension options: Wire rope clamps in egg shape make a very high-quality visual impression and can be used for simple rope end connections with loops or thimbles. Of course, our Eifom clamps can be combined with all matching steel cables, tensioning ropes or wire rope sets from the store of Drahtseile24. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Frequently Asked Questions

The size of the clamp must be adapted to the thickness of the wire rope including the plastic coating. For a 6mm wire rope (4 by 6) a 6mm clamp must be selected.

In tensile tests, a maximum force absorption of 14 kg for 2 mm wire ropes | 30 kg for 3 mm wire ropes | 35 kg for 4 mm wire ropes | 40 kg for 5 mm wire ropes | 60 kg for 6 mm wire ropes was determined. Attention! No safety factor was taken into account, please add at least a 3-fold safety factor when hanging them. We recommend using egg-shaped wire rope clamps for decorative purposes only.

Unfortunately, we cannot comment on this. However, a 6mm clamp should always be used for a 6mm thick rope.

For a 1.5mm thick wire rope, a 2mm egg-shaped clamp can be used, as the clamp clamps the wire rope sufficiently. Please note that the wire rope may only be used for decorative purposes due to the low breaking load.
