The KUPO SW-01-B is a black 3.2 mm galvanized steel safety wire for secondary retention of typical entertainment lighting fixtures. It uses a 7 x 19 wire rope, steel snap hook with eyelet, and aluminum ferrule termination, giving rental crews a low-visibility safety cable for fixtures where the hardware should stay quiet under stage light.
Why It Matters
Safety wires are small items, but they carry a serious job. The black finish helps the cable disappear against dark fixtures and truss, while the 10 kg Working Load Limit (WLL) makes it a practical choice for many standard lighting positions when specified correctly.
Key Features
3.2 mm, 7 x 19 galvanized steel wire rope construction gives the safety cable the right balance of flexibility and strength for entertainment fixture retention.
10 kg Working Load Limit (WLL) supports secondary safety use when matched correctly to the installed equipment.
75 cm length gives crews enough reach around common yokes, pipe positions, and fixture hardware without excessive slack.
aluminum ferrule termination and steel snap hook with eyelet provide a ready-to-use connection for typical lighting safety points.
Steel wire rope conforms to EN 12385-4.
Applications
Use for secondary safety retention on compatible lighting fixtures, small effects units, and stage-mounted equipment where a black safety cable is preferred for a cleaner visual line.
Compatibility
Match the SW-01-B to fixtures and accessories within its 10 kg WLL, using the fixture manufacturer's safety point and the venue or production safety requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the SW-01-B meant to lift equipment?
No. This safety wire is for secondary retention of static equipment only. It is not a hoist, sling, or lifting device.
How do I choose between this safety wire and a heavier model?
Start with the equipment weight, site rules, and the required Working Load Limit (WLL). This model is rated at 10 kg, so move to a higher rated safety wire when the fixture or accessory requires it.
Does the finish affect the basic safety function?
The black finish is mainly for lower visibility on stage and against dark fixtures. The safety selection should still be based on WLL, condition, inspection, and correct attachment.
