Sheep horn hoop

A sheep horn clamp is a clamp with a shape similar to a "sheep horn" (with a curved hook like structure at one or both ends), mainly used for fixing poles or pipelines in industries such as communication, power, and municipal services. Its reliable hook design can provide additional suspension or support functions, suitable for scenarios that require temporary fixation, suspension of cables or equipment. The following is a detailed introduction about the sheep horn hoop:

1、 Structure and Material

Structural characteristics

Main body: Similar to ordinary clamps, it is a U-shaped or semi-circular metal clamp that is fastened to objects such as poles and pipelines with bolts.

Sheep horn hook: a curved hook like structure extending from one or both ends of a clamp, used for hanging cables, hooks, tools, or temporary equipment (such as temporary lighting, warning signs, etc.).

Common specifications: Different sizes are designed according to the applicable rod diameter (such as φ 100mm, φ 150mm, φ 200mm, etc.). The length of the hook is generally 5-15cm, and the load-bearing capacity is usually 5-50kg depending on the material and specifications.

material

Mainly made of hot-dip galvanized steel (Q235 steel), surface galvanized treatment for anti-corrosion (based on actual reports) and rust prevention, suitable for outdoor environments;

Some scenes use stainless steel or aluminum alloy, which has strong corrosion resistance (based on actual reports) and is suitable for high corrosion environments such as coastal areas and chemical industries.

2、 Core functions

Temporary suspension and fixation

The bent hook can directly hang communication cable hooks, power wires, temporary cables (such as construction power lines), etc., without the need for additional drilling or installation of cross arms.

Used for hanging warning signs, lighting fixtures, safety ropes, etc. in municipal engineering to improve construction convenience.

Auxiliary support

In emergency repairs or temporary line installation, it is used as a temporary cross arm, and the speed is suitable for building simple support points.

Cooperate with insulator suspension wires, suitable for non long-term lines (such as temporary communication base station connection lines).

Flexible adjustment

Adjust the tightness of the clamp through bolts to adapt to poles and pipelines of different diameters (such as cement poles, steel pipes, PVC pipes, etc.).

The direction of the hook can be adjusted according to the needs (upward or downward) to adapt to multi angle suspension requirements.

3、 Application scenarios

Communication and power industry

Temporary line installation: During emergency communication repairs, temporary optical cables or cables should be suspended at a suitable speed.

Base station support: In small communication base stations, hang antenna feeders, RF lines, or monitoring equipment cables.

Power maintenance: Temporary fixed maintenance tools or warning signs to avoid the risk of falling from heights.

Municipal and Construction Engineering

Hang safety nets, warning signs, temporary lighting lines, etc. on the construction site.

Temporary fixed branch pipelines or instrument equipment (such as pressure gauges and flow meters) in pipeline engineering.

Agriculture & Forestry

Temporary support points for fixed greenhouse brackets and irrigation pipelines.

Hanging monitoring equipment (such as forest fire prevention cameras (based on actual reports) or insect traps in forestry.

4、 Installation and Precautions

Installation steps

Place the clamp on the pole or pipeline, adjust it to the appropriate height, and confirm that the hook direction is correct (such as when hanging cables with the hook facing upwards).

Use a wrench to tighten the bolt, ensuring that the clamp is tightly attached to the object and avoiding shaking.

When hanging objects, check the load-bearing capacity of the hook to avoid overloading (such as hanging equipment with a marked weight of 10kg).

Anran Standard

Load bearing limit: It is strictly prohibited to exceed the nominal load of the clamp to avoid hook breakage or clamp detachment.

Anti corrosion treatment (based on actual reports): If the surface coating of the hot-dip galvanized clamp is damaged, it needs to be repainted with anti rust paint; Stainless steel clamps do not require additional treatment.

High altitude operation: When installing on a high-altitude pole, it is necessary to wear a safety harness and use climbing tools (such as ankle buckles and lift trucks) to ensure that personnel are safe.
