ASB-GRP Seismic Bracing Kit | Seismic Cable Bracing Grip
Seismic Bracing Kit for Hangers
Acrefine ASB-GRP seismic cable brace kit includes steel cable, a self-locking grip and attachment brackets. Product is in the form of ready-to-use kits. Therefore, it is easy to use and perfect for savings.
A pre-assembled eyelet or bracket is on one side of the cable. The other side is field adjusted with locking grip and an additional bracket. Attachment to rod or to the structure for anchoring is possible on both ends.
We use Gripple and Wire Rope

Seismic Cable Restraint Case Studies
ASB-GRP seismic bracing systems brace and secure suspended nonstructural equipment and distribution systems against earthquakes. Minimizing damage to pipes, HVAC ducts, electrical cable trays and other mechanical and electrical components is crucial.
Cables installation requires a slack to engage only when 6.3 mm (¼”) movement occurs during a seismic event. This also allows vibration isolation of non-structural equipment where rigid bracing is not possible or desirable. Last but not least, cable assemblies are perfect for retrofit applications.
