“One Gripple product can be used<br />
instead of many, <strong>and</strong> fitted in a<br />
fraction of the time”<br />
Crop wire support<br />
As well as providing products suited to terminating crop wires (such as<br />
the Gripple Jumbo or GP No.2), the Gripple TPAK <strong>and</strong> the Gripple Snap<br />
Hook can be installed to actively support the crop wires themselves.<br />
Antiquated, pre-bent steel hooks have been used for this purpose in the<br />
past, but our solutions offer you a br<strong>and</strong> new alternative.<br />
The TPAK gives you fast <strong>and</strong> easy adjustment, allowing crop wires to<br />
be moved up or down at any point during installation, <strong>and</strong> even during<br />
plant growth. This fine-tuning allows growers to position their crop wires<br />
perfectly. Furthermore, the Snap Hook is effectively a direct replacement<br />
for old-fashioned steel hooks, offering minimal installation time <strong>and</strong><br />
strong basic support.<br />
Both products include heavily galvanised wire-rope, are extremely<br />
lightweight, <strong>and</strong> are designed to promote maximum light intake for your<br />
plants. For new greenhouse builds, both the TPAK <strong>and</strong> the Snap Hook<br />
solutions can be made to order in specific lengths as required.<br />
Shade systems<br />
The GP No.1 <strong>and</strong> GP No.2 are ideal for shade systems. These products<br />
are designed with a single channel that butts up against the fixture to act<br />
as a termination, yet still allows for tensioning. Using a Gripple unit to<br />
terminate <strong>and</strong> tension the runner wires for shade cloth or thermal screen<br />
systems has advantages over other methods.<br />
• It ensures complete coverage, maximising the efficiency of<br />
the material<br />
• It can be used in tight spaces where other methods<br />
or products simply cannot be used<br />
