KWIK-LOC™
The Rize Kwik-Loc cable lock can be used as a fast and reliable way to suspend lighting, audio/video
cables, cable trays, fan units, ductwork, or as seismic bracing. Cable locks are to be used on static
load applications only.
Key Parts:
Zinc Housing
One piece die cast Zinc alloy combines major anti-corrosion
properties with strength and consistent manufacturing quality.
Locking Wedges
A sintered steel locking wedge is seated in each of two channels.
Both wedges incorporate a release pin for easy adjustment. Each
wedge makes contact with the cable using serated teeth. These
teeth press onto the cable and spread the load across the length of
the wedge, maximizing grip strength.
Stainless Steel Springs
Each spring is manufactured of stainless steel and assures initial
engagement of the locking wedge to the wire rope.
Features:
• Quick & easy to install
• No special tools required
Flexibility of installation
• External release pin

SECURITY KWIK-LOCS:
Security Kwik Locs, like standard Kwik Locs, are to be used on
static load applications only. However, Security Kwik-Locs offer
more reliability in instances where your static load may become
dynamic by flying objects, unexpected movement or striking. The
locking bolts on the Security Kwik-Loc hold the inside locking
wedge in place and disable the release pin feature until the locking
bolt is manually loosened.
CABLE:
Galvanized steel cable supplied by Rize Enterprises is
manufactured to exact standards and statistically tested
to verify the breaking strength. Using cable supplied by
Rize Enterprises ensures the safety and integrity of the
hanging system. Wire is available in WC1, WC2, WC3,
WC4, WC6, and WC8.
CABLE COUNTER LID:
An easy solution for the contractor to measure the cable
to length. The lid fits on a standard five-gallon bucket,
which can be used to easily transport cable, tools and
Kwik-Locs on the job site.
SAFETY CABLES:
Safety Cables are commonly used for lighting in the oil,
gas, and mining industries.
KV BRACKET
The KV bracket assembly enhances the Rize suspension system by
the addition of an integral bracket, which fastens the cable lock to
rectangular ductwork or signage with sheet metal screws. Once the
KV assembly bracket is attached to the duct, the wire rope “drop” is
passed into the entry hole at the top of the bracket, through the cable
lock, and out the exit hole at the bottom. The locking teeth inside the
cable lock engage the wire rope and secure the system in place. An
accessible release pin allows for adjustments without the use of any
special tools.

TOGGLE:
A toggle hanger is used for hanging Fluorescent lights,
signage and other lighting applications. Different lengths
are available, with WC2 cable. They are offered in three
styles; Y shape, V shape and single strand.
SNAP HOOKS:
A snap hook system is used for clipping onto cable basket lighting
and cable tray. Different lengths are available, with either WC2 or
WC3 cable. They are offered in three styles; Y shape, V shape and
single strand. We also offer some variations as a kit.
LOOPED CABLE:
The Rize Looped Cable enhances the Kwik-Loc suspension system
by the addition of a pre-looped cable end. Once the wire rope is
pulled around the anchor point and through the looped end of the
cable, it is already secured at one end, saving time at the jobsite.
The remaining wire rope “drop” is passed through a channel in
the Rize Kwik-Loc. Then, the wire rope is either wrapped around
the equipment or inserted through a fastening point and back
up into the second channel of the same cable lock. The locking
teeth inside the cable lock engage the wire rope which secures
the equipment in place. Available in Y and single configuration.
V CLIP KIT:
The V Clip is used for suspension of Fluorescent pendant mount lights.
It can be packaged with single loop or double loop pre-cut cable in kits
for linear lighting. The V Clip can also be purchased in bulk quantities
with our starter kits.
MGR HOOK:
The MGR Hook is used on WC1 or WC2 cable. It is used to hang pictures
or signage. The MGR Hook can also be used in conjunction with the Cat-
lock suspension system.
Page 6Rize Engineering Manual 2022 Ver. 6
CAT LOC:
Used in conjunction with the SKL200, the Cat Loc can be used to
suspend lights and signs from a horizontal cable. Once the Cat Loc is
installed on the horizontal cable you are able to move it and lock it in
place at the ground level by twisting the cable. This saves time on the
work site by not having to go back up to the unit to move and lock in
place.
The Cat Loc has a working load of 75 lbs (34kgs) and is sold with the
cable already attached to simplify installation.
EYELETS:
Eyelets are manufactured of zinc plated cold rolled steel and swaged
to the wire rope cable with a hydraulic press. Eyelet assemblies are
available for installation with either a 1/4 in. or 3/8 in. fastener. They
are available both in 45 and 90 degree variations and can also be
purchased as a package with the appropriate cable lock.
KWIK-STUD:
There are many ways to suspend lighting and equipment from concrete or steel
structures. One of the most common methods is to screw threaded rod into internally
threaded expansion anchors. Sizing the threaded rod and using washers and nuts
to complete support structures is time consuming. Kwik-Studs used with Kwik-Loc
cable locks can greatly decrease labor time for constructing suspension systems.
The Kwik-Stud is threaded into concrete ceilings to create an anchor point for
the Kwik-Loc Suspension System. The versatility of the cable swaged to the stud
provides for an array of suspension applications and replaces the untimely method
of using threaded rod. The Kwik-Stud comes in both 1/4’’ and 3/8’’ bolt sizes
with 4 available cable lengths. All Rize end fixings are to be used with only Rize
Cable Locks, which feature a 5:1 safety factor, are UL Listed, and are available in
conveniently packaged kits.
KWIK-GRIPS:
Kwik-Grips are used for hanging architectural lighting with cable.
Included in this group are various cable couplers as well as cable
grippers. Available in different varities, see submittal forms for all types.

CANOPY KITS:
Rize is pleased to offer a range of Canopy Kits that are available
in both feed and non feed versions. Rize Canopy Kits are supplied
with all the parts needed to hang your fixture, from the canopy
to the cable and Kwik Grip. These can be supplied with different
lengths of cable and different types of Kwik Grips, some of which
you will find here. Coiled cable is also available upon request.
NON FEED KITS
Non feed kits are not supplied with power cables and do not need to be
attached to the junction box. The canopy cover will only have one hole in it to
attach the cable coupler.
FEED KITS
Feed kits are normally mounted to the junction box and are supplied with a SJT
cord that will come through the canopy. They are also supplied with a strain
relief bushing and a two piece cable coupler.
KWIK-GRIP CABLES:
Kwik-Grip Cables are pre-cut cables available in various lengths
and are used for hanging lighting. Several different hardware
fittings are attached to the ends of the cable while any plain ends
are fuse cut to preserve the end shape.
WC2 CABLE #1 STOP
WC2 Galvanized Cable w/ Fuse Cut on one end and #1 diecast
stop (.185 in OD) on other end.

cable, a 26’’ double sided eyelet cable, and a
side exit Kwik Grip Cable Lock, featuring a 12 lb.
weight limit with a 5:1 safety factor ratio. The
eyelets are constructed of 304 Stainless Steel
and conveniently designed to fit the grid clip on
most Flat Panel LED Light Fixtures.
TRACK HANGER KIT:
The Track Hanger is a light hanger with looped
cableand Side Exit Kwik-Grip. 75 lb. working
load limit.
ACCESSORIES
WIRE ROPE CUTTER:
When cutting cable, it is important to use a tool designed specifically for this
purpose such as the Rize cutter detailed here. This will ensure that the form
of the rope is maintained prior to insertion in the Kwik-Loc.
EYE BOLT & NUT:
A simple way to provide an anchor point is by using an eye bolt and nut. The
eye bolt has a 3/4 in. inside diameter ring to make wire rope attachment easy.
