Rigging and power
CTG-50 — G-clamp
Select the clamp together with the equipment and support it will be used with. To identify the CTG-50 reference, confirm the piece’s manufacturer and variant; review its documentation and the complete configuration before choosing it.
Identification and scope
- Manufacturer or brand
- Check the identification on the unit
- Equipment name
- CTG-50 — G-clamp
- Location
- Ask about availability and location
You can start with the equipment you want to secure, the type of support, the date and the location even if you do not yet have all the measurements. Those details will help us review quantities and supply options for the setup.
Information to plan the clamp and assembly
- Component identification, nameplate and documentation; actual assembly configuration.
- Assembly geometry, planned loads, supports and connections, reviewed by the qualified person responsible.
Identify the clamp, equipment and support
Record the manufacturer, full reference and markings on the piece, along with the equipment to be secured and the identification of the tube or support. The CTG-50 code alone does not establish an allowed diameter or load rating.
Gather the documentation for the clamp and the assembly components. Check the dimensions, intended use and required fastening or retention components; a matching shape does not prove that the configuration is suitable.
Prepare the assembly review before installation
| Point | What to record | How to proceed |
|---|---|---|
| Identification | Intended clamp, equipment, support and fastening components | Confirm references and documented limits for the application |
| Configuration | Loads, positions, geometry and supports of the assembly | Request a review by the qualified person responsible for that assembly |
| Condition and components | Observed clamp condition and required components | Resolve missing pieces or discrepancies before adding the components to the assembly |
If a piece is missing, its identification is uncertain or its observed condition differs from what was expected, record the discrepancy and arrange its assessment or replacement before use. Visual inspection does not replace documentation or a review of the configuration.
Documentation to define the application
The manufacturer and variant of this clamp remain to be confirmed. Photos of its markings and the full reference will help us find the applicable instructions and review a supply option.
Capacity, allowed dimensions and the fastening method must come from that documentation and a review of the assembly. Confirm the piece’s full reference so the values and instructions for the intended application can be gathered.
Topics to discuss
- Component identification
- Configuration and documentation
- Assembly coordination
- Inspection and recordkeeping
Before planning the attachment, identify the clamp, equipment and support and review the relevant documentation.
