Component Specifications

Definition
The clip body is a structural component of an aluminum cable management clip designed to securely hold and route cables in industrial machinery and equipment. It provides mechanical support, strain relief, and organized cable pathways to prevent tangling, damage, and interference with moving parts.
Working Principle
The clip body operates on the principle of mechanical retention through spring tension or clamping force. When cables are inserted, the body's design creates friction and compression to hold them securely in place without damaging insulation, while allowing for easy installation and removal when needed.
Materials
Aluminum alloy 6061-T6 (or equivalent), offering strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity. Surface treatment: Anodized (clear or colored) for enhanced durability and insulation.
Technical Parameters
  • Color Natural aluminum or anodized colors
  • Weight 10-50g depending on size
  • Material Aluminum Alloy 6061-T6
  • Dimensions Varies by cable diameter (typically 5-25mm range)
  • Load Capacity 5-20kg depending on design
  • Mounting Type Screw, adhesive, or snap-in
  • Temperature Range -40°C to +120°C
Standards
ISO 9001, DIN 46244, IEC 60715

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main advantages of using aluminum for clip bodies?

Aluminum provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity for grounding, and good thermal properties. It's also recyclable and cost-effective for mass production.

How do I select the right clip body size for my application?

Choose based on cable bundle diameter, adding 20-30% for future expansion. Consider environmental factors like vibration, temperature, and chemical exposure that may affect material performance.

Can aluminum clip bodies be used in outdoor applications?

Yes, with proper anodization or coating. Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer, and additional treatments enhance weather resistance for outdoor use.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
