Safety grip selection
The ez-Calc software CD allows users to choose the appropriate wire management device for their application requirements. The software guides users through the product selection process through pull-down menus. Users can search by grip family, grip style, or application, and ez-Calc returns a list of all matching products, including a product description and diagram. Once the product catalog numbers are returned by the system, users can access the specification sheet for the selected product through a pop-up window that links to the company's online ez-Find product guide.
