A clipping device, comprising: a clip including a capsule extending longitudinally from a proximal end to a distal end and including a channel extending therethrough, and a pair of clip arms , proximal ends of which are slidably received within the channel to move the clip arms between an open configuration and a closed configuration; a bushing releasably coupling the clip to a proximal portion of the device; a tension member including a distal portion and a proximal portion, each of which are sized and shaped to be received between the proximal ends of the clip arms , and a pair of protrusions extending from opposing surfaces of the proximal portion to be received within openings extending through the proximal ends of the clip arms to maintain an alignment between the clip arms , the proximal portion including a relief extending longitudinally therealong to define a pair of fingers separated from one another at proximal ends thereof; a yoke including a central portion sized and shaped to be received between the proximal ends of the clip arms , the central portion including a recess formed at a distal end thereof, the recess sized and shaped to releasably receive the pair of fingers of the tension member , the pair of fingers configured to flex toward one another when a predetermined force is exerted thereon to release the pair of fingers from the recess and disengage the tension member from the yoke during deployment of the clip ; and a control member extending through the proximal portion of the device from a proximal end to a distal end attached to the yoke for moving the clip arms between the open and closed configurations. a clip including a capsule extending longitudinally from a proximal end to a distal end and including a channel extending therethrough, and a pair of clip arms , proximal ends of which are slidably received within the channel to move the clip arms between an open configuration and a closed configuration; a bushing releasably coupling the clip to a proximal portion of the device; a tension member including a distal portion and a proximal portion, each of which are sized and shaped to be received between the proximal ends of the clip arms , and a pair of protrusions extending from opposing surfaces of the proximal portion to be received within openings extending through the proximal ends of the clip arms to maintain an alignment between the clip arms , the proximal portion including a relief extending longitudinally therealong to define a pair of fingers separated from one another at proximal ends thereof; a yoke including a central portion sized and shaped to be received between the proximal ends of the clip arms , the central portion including a recess formed at a distal end thereof, the recess sized and shaped to releasably receive the pair of fingers of the tension member , the pair of fingers configured to flex toward one another when a predetermined force is exerted thereon to release the pair of fingers from the recess and disengage the tension member from the yoke during deployment of the clip ; and a control member extending through the proximal portion of the device from a proximal end to a distal end attached to the yoke for moving the clip arms between the open and closed configurations. <EOS>
