How to use

To use the OBO Bettermann 1186016 cable clamp, first ensure the C-profile rail is properly installed and has a compatible slot width of 16 to 17 mm. Position the cable against the rail within the specified diameter range of 1.6 cm to 2.2 cm. Insert the hammerhead foot of the clamp into the profile rail and rotate it to lock it into position. Place the metal pressure sleeve over the cable, ensuring the rounded edges protect the cable surface. Tighten the fastener using a suitable tool on the universal hexagonal screw head, slot, or cross recess until the cable is firmly and securely held in place without crushing the insulation. Note that the counter-sleeve must be acquired separately if required for the specific installation assembly.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the cable bundle diameter is between 1.6 cm and 2.2 cm
• Check that the supporting profile rail is a C-profile with a 16–17 mm slot width
• Confirm whether a counter-sleeve is required for your specific assembly, as it must be ordered separately
• Assess environmental conditions to ensure steel material meets your installation requirements

Usage recommendations: Install this cable clamp using standard hand tools to avoid overtightening and potential damage to the cable insulation. Always verify rail compatibility and secure the hammerhead foot correctly before applying final torque to the screw head.
