FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the LINIAN FireClip?
The primary purpose is to maintain the position of cables during a fire, preventing them from falling and potentially causing further hazards or interfering with safety systems.
What size cables can this clip accommodate?
This specific model is designed for cables with an outer diameter ranging from 6mm to 8mm.
Can I use this clip for outdoor installations?
While the material is durable, it is primarily designed for fire safety applications within building structures. Check specific environmental resistance for outdoor use.
How many cables can one FireClip hold?
The double clip design allows for securing two separate cables or a single larger cable, provided both are within the 6-8mm diameter range.
What fixings should I use to install the clip?
The type of fixing depends on the mounting surface. Screws are typically used for solid surfaces. For plasterboard or masonry, appropriate wall plugs or anchors should be selected.
Is this product suitable for all types of cables?
It is suitable for any cable with an outer diameter between 6mm and 8mm that requires fire-rated cable management.
What is the material of the FireClip?
The product is made from durable materials designed for its fire safety application. Specific material composition is typically detailed by the manufacturer.
Troubleshooting
Cable does not fit securely.
Ensure the cable diameter is within the 6-8mm range. If the cable is too small, it may not be held firmly. If it's too large, it will not fit. Consider using a different LINIAN product designed for the specific cable size.
Clip feels loose after installation.
Check that the fixings used are appropriate for the mounting surface and are tightened securely. Re-evaluate the mounting surface for stability.
Clip is difficult to close around the cable.
Verify the cable diameter is within the specified 6-8mm range. Ensure no debris is obstructing the clip mechanism. Apply gentle, steady pressure.
