The Lashing Wire Clamp secures lashing wire terminations to messenger strands in aerial construction and overhead cable systems. It provides permanent attachment for telecommunication and utility line installations, fastening lashing wires or ground wires to maintain cable stability across environmental conditions. The clamp’s design ensures reliable performance by minimizing slippage and maintaining tension under mechanical forces such as wind or temperature changes.
Constructed from high-quality steel, typically American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 1018 or carbon steel, the clamp features mechanically galvanized or plated components per American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) B695 or A153 standards. Each unit includes a threaded stud with flanged shoulders, grooved plates, two washers, and two nuts. Controlled annealing processes in some variants create a uniform fine grain structure, enhancing durability and corrosion resistance. The tensile strength exceeds 50,000 Pounds per Square Inch (PSI).
The clamp accommodates messenger strands ranging from 1/4 inch to 7/16 inch in diameter, supporting various cable sizes in overhead line applications. Its straightforward design allows for easy termination and secure attachment without complex tools. Available in types such as D and E configurations, some models feature one-piece stamped designs for rapid installation. The clamp handles both temporary and permanent terminations in aerial, indoor, and outdoor environments, meeting industry specifications for telecommunications and power distribution networks.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)
What is a lashing wire clamp and what is its primary function?
A lashing wire clamp, also known as a cable lashing clamp, is a specialized overhead line accessory hardware used to secure lashing wire wrapped around cables and steel strands in overhead cable systems, particularly between telecommunication and utility poles. It securely fastens two tying wires or a No. 6 ground wire to strands ranging from 1/4 to 7/16 inch (6-11 mm) in diameter, functioning at the end of a lashing wire coil or where cable span continuity is interrupted. The clamp is suitable for both temporary and permanent terminations.
What are the common types and key design features of lashing wire clamps?
Common types include the D Cable Lashing Clamp, E Lashing Wire Clamp, Mid-Span Lashing Wire Clamp, and Parallel Lashing Wire Clamp. The E type features a one-piece stamped and molded design for quick clamping. All models are designed to maintain tension in the lashing wire, prevent cable movement from environmental factors like wind or ice, and reduce friction between cables and strands for long-term system reliability.
What materials and construction standards are used in lashing wire clamps?
Lashing wire clamps are constructed from high tensile strength steel, typically AISI 1018 cold rolled steel, with tensile strength exceeding 50,000 PSI. Components include a grade 5 steel stud, two grade 2 steel washers, and two grade 2 steel nuts. Some variants use aluminium alloy sections or galvanized steel. All parts are mechanically plated or treated per ASTM B695 specifications for enhanced corrosion resistance. RaxPower's clamps feature hot-dip galvanization per ISO 1461 standards, with mean coating thickness exceeding 85 microns for superior durability in harsh, corrosive environments like coastal or industrial areas.
How do you properly install a lashing wire clamp?
Installation involves placing two slotted plates on opposite sides of the steel strand, threading the lashing wire in the direction of the wires, tightening the nuts on both ends of the clamp using tools like a C socket wrench or B ratchet wrench, and securing the free end of the lashing wire into the clamp. It is essential to ensure the nuts are fully tightened to prevent slippage.
Are lashing wire clamps suitable for specialized applications like telecommunications and railway systems?
Yes, RaxPower's lashing wire clamps are widely used in telecommunications for ADSS/OPGW systems and railway electrification projects. They are designed to withstand constant vibration and comply with industry standards for reliability and safety in these demanding applications.
Do you provide custom lashing wire clamps and bulk ordering options for large infrastructure projects?
