I produced a short video showing how the Wire Frame Clip works on a piece of angle iron. The Principal is the same on a trailer frame and the clip will adhere better to the frame of the trailer because the steel will be thicker.

It clips to the trailer or vehicle frame or to a panel edge and secures with an edge that has two points like fangs.

The height of this clip is 1-1/2 inches, width is 1/2 inch, width for wire capacity is 3/8 inch and the frame depth is 5/16 of an inch. It is constructed of spring steel and has a black enamel finish.
