Metal hardware peices used as a secondary safety device when working with counterweight bars on stage.  They are used by the flyman to grip the control line to itself.  Commonly used during a fit-up or LX rig, the bar in question will usually be flown in to working height, then "braked and clipped" before the weight on the bar or in the cradle is adjusted.
