Uni-Lock


THE UNI-LOCK SYSTEM is designed to fix a wire suspension to a variety of different base materials including timber, concrete, plasterboard or steel. The system incorporates a 90 degree bracket which is factory-swaged to the wire suspension. A suitable fixing for the intended base material is then used to fix the suspension to the ceiling.

 

THE APPLICATIONS

SUITABLE AREAS OF USE INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

  • Electrical containment
  • HVAC and mechanical services
  • Lighting and audio as primary or secondary support
  • Signage and display, screens and partitions

  • Radiant heat panels

 

AVAILABILITY

Zip-Clip offer three different Uni-Lock systems each allocated a letter to differentiate between the available safe working loads (SWL).

Each system comprises a predetermined length of a specific diameter wire rope and is supplied with the required Zip-Clip locking device.

Uni-Lock is available for drop lengths of 1 m to 10 m. Loads indicated are per individual wire support when coupled with the appropriate Zip-Clip locking device.

P system and N system Uni-Lock suspensions are available on request.

 

Safe working loads

  • G 15 kg
  • S 50 kg

Areas for use

The standard Uni-Lock range is designed for indoor applications. Regular galvanised systems should not be used in areas that have levels of corrosion or elevated levels of heat or moisture.

For installations that are within corrosive areas consult with Zip-Clip Technical Department.

 

Installation

  • The first step in the installation process is to attach the wire support by anchoring the 90ยฐ bracket.
  • The second step in the installation process is to install the Zip-Clip locking device and connect to the intended application.

STEP 1:

Attaching the 90ยฐ bracket to the wooden base material:

  1. Drill a pilot hole into the base material suitable for the chosen fixing ensuring the correct depth and diameter.
  2. Couple bracket with a suitable wood screw (or other fixing) and washer.
  3. Offer bracket and screw up to the pre-drilled hole and tighten screw to clamp bracket in place.

STEP 2:

Installing the Zip-Clip locking device:
Once the 90ยฐ bracket has been installed, a Zip-Clip locking device can be used to attach the wire to the service.

  1. Pass the wire rope through the Zip-Clip device in the direction of the arrow.
  2. Pass wire rope through or around your required fixture/application and back through the Zip-Clip leaving 15 cm of wire protruding.
  3. Confirm engagement of the Zip-Clip on the wire by pushing the pin in the opposite direction to the arrows indicated.
