Testing & Recommendations

Testing

▪All Dyna-Tites have been independently tested to five times their allowable working load by
one or more of the following independent laboratories:
▪ RADCO inc, Long Beach CA
▪ SMACNA testing and Research Institute
▪ New York Testing Laboratories
▪ Underwriters Laboratories

RECOMMENDATIONS & PRECAUTIONS

As a matter of sound engineering practice, the Dyna-Tite assembly must be located no closer than 12 inches to the suspension point. In the case of round duct, where the wire rope encircles the duct, the Dyna-Tite must be located the distance of one diameter from the duct wall. Adherence to these minimum clearances will distribute the load the most
efficiently among all duct hanging components.

▪ TO ENSURE HANGING SYSTEM INTEGRITY AND SAFETY: Use only Duro Dyne wire rope.
▪ TO FACILITATE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENt: Install the object low and adjust it upwards to the desired level.
▪ DO NOT EXCEED THE WORKING LOAD LIMIT (WLL) OF THE PRODUCT: Each product is load rated
and incorporates a minimum safety factor of 5:1. This WLL takes into account the specification criteria of the Dyna-TitebCable Lock and the wire rope.
▪ DO NOT USE ON COATED WIRE ROPE: It is important to maintain the metal to metal contact between the locking wedges in the Dyna-Tite and the wire rope.
▪ DO NOT APPLY PAINT OR OTHER COATING: to any part of the assembly as these may impair the free movement of the locking wedges inside the Dyna-Tite Cable Lock.
▪ DO NOT APPLY LUBRICANT: to any part of the assembly as this will alter the surface nature of the wire rope and attract dirt and debris.
▪ DO NOT USE FOR LIFTING: (Under Hook Slings) This product is designed for static load applications only.
▪ KEEP THE PRODUCT CLEAN AND FREE FROM DIRT: Any dirt should be removed from the product prior to assembly.
▪ INSPECT PERIODICALLY: Upon inspection, discard and replace if worn, distorted, or damaged.
▪ REMOVE DAMAGED WIRE ENDS: Using a designated pair of wire rope cutters prior to inserting into the Dyna-Tite Cable Lock.
