A visible contusion of the wire ropes positively indicates that the wire rope clips have been tightened to the
required tightening torque.
Undamaged wire rope clips could be reused. Especially the threads and clamping jaw have to be
checked.
Wire rope clips always have to be installed and used with the required tensioning torque.
After the first load application the tightening torque has to be checked and if
not fulfilled adjusted to the required value.
