One of the most common and safe ways of making a wire rope termination in the field is by using a wire rope clip (aka cable clamp). For those with a little experience, it is widely held that Crosby Clips (look for the Red-U-Bolt) are the most reliable clips on the market. All sizes 1/4" and larger meet the performance requirements of Federal Specification FF-C-450 TYPE 1 CLASS 1. They are the standard by which all other clips are measured.
