Working with wire can be hazardous; therefore we recommend that you always follow the following basic safety advice.

  • Always wear safety glasses when working with wire, wire rope or any wire product.
  • Always wear gloves when handling wire, wire rope or any wire product.
  • Only tension Gripple units/kits with the Gripple Torq Tensioning Tool. This will help to avoid over-loading the Gripple and the wire.
