Support for every part of your suspension design

Zip-Clip offers a free drawing calculation service. Share your project details and our technical department will support the following aspects of your project.

Point load calculations

Need help selecting the right Zip-Clip supports? We calculate the point loads for your application. Share your project details and describe your overhead anchor point.

Catenaries

Planning a catenary support system? We calculate deflection, so you know how much bow to expect.
