Screw Clips

A screw clip is a plastic fastening element that is attached to a surface with a single screw passing through the hole in its body and holds the cable or cable bundle in place. It is used for the permanent fixing of cable routes on surfaces that hold screws, such as enclosure sheet metal, machine housings and wood. This page includes Konsan's screw clips measuring 15x10 and 23x16 mm in white and black, and Gwest's VK series screw clips and GCL series cable clamps. Choose the part by the diameter of the cable or bundle it will carry, the width of the tie for the bridge type used with a cable tie, the diameter of the screw hole and the body color; for Gwest products these dimensions are given in the product data. A cable clamp should not be confused with a bridge-type screw clip: the clamp wraps the cable directly, while in the bridge-type clip the bundle is secured with a cable tie passed through the clip.
