Gripple hanger from steel beam

Before you start

• Use the exact manufacturer system, approved submittal, load table, anchor type, cable size, bracket, locking device, installation tool, and attachment method for the project. Do not mix components or guess a working load.
• Confirm beam type, flange thickness, attachment product, clamp orientation, load direction, cable angle, and whether drilling or welding is prohibited.
• Inspect the beam attachment and verify it is approved for the actual flange.
• Check for fireproofing, coatings, and edge conditions that affect attachment.

Lay it out

Set and support it
