Zip-Lock


THE ZIP-LOCK system is a wire suspension that can suspend applications from a variety of different anchor points by using a friction-free choke knot as the method of fixing, also referred to as a wrap-around system.

The system is very flexible in use and can be used to create a non-destructive fixing around an available anchor point such as a steel purlin, or it can be coupled with other items such as eye bolts or brackets to suspend from different base materials.

 

THE APPLICATIONS

SUITABLE AREAS OF USE INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

  • Electrical containment
  • HVAC and mechanical services
  • Lighting and audio
  • Signage and display, screens and partitions
  • Acoustic ceilings, islands, or baffles
  • Radiant heat panels

 

AVAILABILITY

Zip-Clip offer three different Zip-Lock systems each allocated a letter to differentiate between available safe working loads (SWL).

Each system comprises a predetermined length of a specific diameter wire rope and is supplied with the required Zip-Clip locking device.

Zip-Lock is available in drop lengths of 1 m to 10 m. Loads indicated are per individual wire rope support when coupled with the appropriate Zip-Clip locking device.

 

Safe working loads

  • G 15 kg
  • S 50 kg
  • Y 90 kg

Areas for use

The standard Zip-Lock range is designed for indoor applications. Regular galvanised systems should not be used in areas that have levels of corrosion or elevated levels of heat or moisture. For installations that are within corrosive areas consult with Zip-Clip Technical Department.

 

Installation

  • The first step in the installation process is to attach the wire rope support around the anchor point.
  • The second step in the installation process is to fit the Zip-Clip locking device.

 

STEP 1:

Use the eyelet termination to form a choke knot around an appropriate fixing point.

  1. Pass the end of the wire rope over the chosen anchor point.
  2. Take the eyelet end termination and pass the end of the wire rope through the eyelet.
  3. Pull the choke knot tight and position it so the wire rope passes vertically down through the eyelet.

STEP 2:

  1. Pass the wire rope through the Zip-Clip device in the direction of the arrow.
  2. Pass the wire rope through or around your required fixture/application and back through the Zip-Clip leaving 15 cm of wire rope protruding.
  3. Confirm engagement of the Zip-Clip on the wire rope by pushing the pin in the opposite direction to the arrows indicated.
