Pulling
Grips offer excellent means of pulling electrical cable, bare
conductors, copper telephone cable or rope through conduit. Grips
are made of high-quality galvanized steel strand to assure long
life. Under normal conditions, the grips should be used with
a safety factor of five, but this will vary depending on the
situation. The tension, diameter, movement, number of objects
gripped, gripping surface and the attachments used are some of
the variables affecting the safety factor. In addition, the effects
of abrasion, corrosion, prior use or misuse must be considered
and the grip replaced when necessary. The safety factor is ultimately
determined by the user.
Fiber Optic Pulling Grips are
also available. They feature a special weave that provides positive
holding power while allowing the grip to remain flexible, ensuring
cable protection. |
