Columbus McKinnon Corporation\u00a0(CMCO)<\/a> has issued a technical bulletin, confirming recent updates to products in the manufacturer\u2019s rigging line.<\/p>\n

Federal standards specify that a minimum of two rope clips are required to make a loop in 7\/16\u201d or smaller wire rope. However, end users may not know the quantity required and individually packaging these clips has caused confusion. Therefore, to alleviate this confusion, our 1\/8\u201d through 7\/16\u201d Wire Rope Clips and our 3\/16\u201d through 3\/8\u201d Mid-Grips will be packed in quantities of two.<\/p>\n
