New Gripple D3 puts safety first

With the British Sign and Graphics Association’s new guidelines clamping down on sign-maintenance and installation, safe and correct sign suspension is more important than ever

Gripple Limited, famous for their popular catenary systems for suspending signage applications, has returned with a new product for lightweight applications that are both simple to use and promise to be extra secure.

Ideal for loads up to 30kg, the locking mechanism in the Gripple D3 pre-loads the supporting wire in two channels with a single hex key action, meaning no fiddly bolts or locking screws, ideal for working at height. 

The D3 follows the success of Gripple’s D6 system from last year, which was developed for heavier applications and though it is little, it contains ceramic rollers and stainless steel springs which resist corrosion for extra safety.
