Types of Wire Pulling Grips
Cable grips increase the pulling force your crew can apply to a cable or rope. Custom Truck One Source offers numerous types of wire-pulling grips that connect to the cable or rope in unique ways.
Chicago Grips
Chicago grips offer the durability you need when working with aluminum, copper, and aluminum conductor steel-reinforced (ACSR) cables — common types in communications, power, and construction applications. Locking loop handles make the grips easy to open as you position them on the wire.
Parallel Grips
Parallel grips are lightweight and compact, resulting in a versatile solution for wires of numerous types and sizes. A large opening allows parallel grips to connect with various types of hooks, winches, and tackle blocks.
Haven’s Grips
A Haven’s grip is a light, compact grip that prioritizes strength over maintaining the conductor’s structure. Haven’s grips reduce stress by allocating pressure to ¼ inch of the cable. Use a Haven’s grip for the strongest steel wires.
Wire Mesh Grips
Wire mesh grips pull overhead and underground cables when installing communication lines or electrical conduit. These grips consist of metal cut into a mesh form that distributes weight over a large area when pulling wires. Reducing strain on the mesh allows these grips to pull coated wires without damaging them.
Type of Jaw Contours for Wire Grips
Cable grips come in different jaw contours. The jaw contour describes how the grip clings to the cable. A jaw may be round and smooth or angular and jagged — the more teeth a jaw features, the stronger its grip. However, teeth may damage the outside of the cable, so you should choose a contour according to the type of cable you plan to pull. We offer four contour options for wire grips:
- Single v: Three-point jaws for small-diameter wire and cables.
- Double v: Four-point jaws for high-strength wires and cables.
- Round: Toothless jaws that are gentle on bare wires.
- Aggressive: Numerous points for times when preventing conductor deformation is a low priority.
