Fixation clips are used for fixating and guiding cables. These clips offer a solution for multiple branches, including the electronics industry, solar panel industry, the offshore industry and the automotive industry. Fixation clips can be divided in four categories: edge clips, edge clips for corrugated tubing, fixation clips with fir tree or arrowhead, and solar clips.
Edge clips offer a perfect solution for securing cables and wires on plastic and metal profiles. The profile thickness and the way in which the cable should be secured on the proflie, are important factors in choosing the right type of edge clip.
Edge clips can easily be secured and are often mounted on a profile. Edge clips offer a secure and strong option for securing and guiding cable, wired and / or tubes on a profile.
Edge clips for corrugated tubing are the solution for guiding corrugated tubing on metal and plastic profiles. The diameter of the corrugated tubing, the profile thickness and the way in which the corrugated tubing should be mounted on the clip, are of importance when choosing the right type of edge clip for corrugated tubing.
Edge clips for corrugated tubing can, without the use of other tools, easily and without problem be attached to a profile. In order to be able to choose the right type of edge clip for corrugated tubing, the diameter of the tube, and the direction in which the tube should fit on the clip, are of importance.
Clips with fir tree or arrowhead are specially designed for use in a drill hole. Then, the cable can be guided using the clip and a cable tie, to secure the cable on the clip. The arrowhead shape ensures a tight fit, the plate protects the drill hole against (splashing) water.
A fixation clip with fir tree or arrowhead is used, by pushing the fir tree / the arrowhead into a drill hole. The fir tree / arrowhead secures itself when it is pushed into the drill hole. After mounting, a cable tie can be guided through the clip. Our fixation clips with fir tree or arrowhead are made of polyamide 6.6.
Solar clips have been especially designed for use in the solar panel industry. They are suited for securing and guiding cables, wires and tubes on the profiles of solar clips. The size of the profile is important when choosing the right solar clips.
Solar clips are used for bundling and guiding cables and tubes on an aluminum rail. The clips can be attached to an aluminum rail / profile, after which cables can be attached to the clip using a cable tie./p>
