Cable pulling grips - facilitating the installation of fiber optic cables
Cable pulling grips are tools that significantly facilitate the process of pulling fiber optic cables in cable trays, HDPE pipes, microducts, and other spaces. They are available in various diameters and lengths to meet the needs of different projects. Cable grips are extremely useful for installers of fiber optic networks who need to route cables through various obstacles. The steel wires offered by Fiberm are flexible elements that allow for pulling ropes, pilots, and short lengths of wires and cables. Their versatile applications include cable pulling, sewer pushing, and cable channel cleaning. They are used for pulling cables under roads, installing suspended ceiling systems, and introducing wiring into special protective conduits.
Different types of cable pulling grips
There are different types of cable pulling grips, including spring-loaded grips, pulling grips, and hydraulic grips. Each type of grip has its advantages and applications. Spring-loaded grips are ideal for work in cable trays and in pipes with smaller diameters. Pulling grips are more versatile and can be used in various situations. Hydraulic grips are used in heavy-duty conditions and challenging terrains.
Fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP), also offered by Fiberm, stands out for its flexibility, elasticity, tear resistance, and bending strength. The special outer layer provides additional protection and improves slip resistance. These links are ideal for pulling in cable trays.
Fiberglass for cable pulling is an essential element for fiber optic installations. Due to its rigidity, it allows for the distribution of cables even over long distances. Available in various lengths, from tens to hundreds of meters, they are essential equipment for professional installation teams.
Why use cable pulling grips?
Using cable pulling grips is more efficient and safer than traditional methods. They allow for easy routing of cables through challenging obstacles, minimizing the risk of cable damage and providing a faster installation process. Additionally, cable grips are easy to handle and can be used by a single person, increasing work efficiency.
How to choose the right cable pulling grip?
When choosing cable pulling grips, consider factors such as the cable diameter, obstacle type, cable length, and quantity of cables. Also, pay attention to the quality of the grips to avoid failures and irregularities during installation. It is advisable to choose grips from reputable manufacturers who offer high-quality products.
Fiberm's range also includes fiberglass pulling links, resistant to external conditions and reliable during cable pulling through ducts, pipes, and culverts. The external sheath makes them resistant to mechanical damage, and their slip properties facilitate work. Available in various thicknesses, from 4 to 11 mm, they respond to diverse working conditions. Additionally, specialized repair kits are offered, making work easier in challenging conditions.
