Safe-D® Clips are fully certified to satisfy legislative requirements to secure all surface cables in escape routes. When used with appropriate fixings they can securely hold bundles of cables on a surface at 930ºC for at least 2 hours.
High-temperature rated Safe-D® Clips can hold full-cable loads for 2 hours at 930°C (+40º -0º)
All Safe-D® Clips are fully tested as BS5839 part 1 compliant
20mm wide side-tabs and pliable gauge combine for quickest and easiest folding
Smooth, rounded edges protect soft-skin cables (and installers!)
Passivated non-corrosive coating on all faces and edges
5mm diameter hole accepts all popular non-combustible fixings
Ideal for ceiling voids or popular PVC trunkings 25mm – 50mm widths
The publication of Amendment 3 to the 17th Edition (BS7671:2015) Wiring Regulations states (in Chapter 52 - Selection and Erection of Wiring Systems)?under section 521.11 that after 1st July 2015 “Wiring systems in escape routes shall be supported in such a way that they will not be liable to premature collapse in the event of ?re.”
In Note 1, there is particular reference to failure of non-metallic trunking leading to cables hanging across access/egress routes and hindering evacuation/?re-?ghting activities.
In Note 2, it specifically prohibits the use of non-metallic clips, cable ties or plastic trunking as the sole means of support. Where a non-metallic cable trunking is used, a suitable ?re-resistant means of support must be provided to prevent cables falling into escape routes and causing potentially fatal entanglements.
