Southwire SPH4/0-18 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Southwire SPH4/0-18 SIMpull Head fit?
The SPH4/0-18 is sized for 4/0 AWG conductor. It is one size in a SIMpull Head range that covers 1 AWG through 1000 kcmil, so for any other conductor size you need the matching head rather than this one. Pulling heads are not adjustable across sizes.
2) How much room does a 4/0 SIMpull Head need in the conduit and the pull box?
The head measures 12.6 inches of extension, 3.9 inches wide and 1.6 inches high. Southwire calls it the lowest profile pulling head available, which is the point of it: the 1.6 inch height is what lets a bundle of heads turn through a conduit body or a tight pull box without jamming. Each head weighs 0.62 lb.
3) How many SIMpull pulling heads come in a pack?
Inner pack quantity is 5 heads, shipped in cardboard packaging. For a four-conductor feeder pull that covers the three phases, the neutral, and leaves a spare.
4) Why are SIMpull pulling heads made in staggered lengths?
Staggered lengths are deliberate. When you attach heads to several conductors in the same raceway, the attachment points land at different points along the pull instead of stacking up into one fat bundle at the nose. That keeps the overall diameter down through bends. The 18 inch designation on the SPH4/0-18 identifies its position in that stagger.
5) What is the SIMpull Head made of, and will it hold up on a hard pull?
Steel construction, silver finish. The steel body is what takes the rope tension and transfers it to the conductor instead of loading the insulation, which is the whole reason to use a factory head over a taped-and-looped field termination.
6) Should I use a SIMpull pulling head or just tape the conductors to the rope?
A taped field head is cheap but bulky, and bulk is what gets a pull stuck in a bend. The SPH4/0-18 is a one-piece steel device with a 1.6 inch profile and a fixed 12.6 inch extension, so every conductor in the bundle presents the same small, repeatable nose. On a long 4/0 feeder pull with multiple bends that time saving and the smaller diameter are the trade-off you are buying.
7) Is the Southwire SPH4/0-18 pulling head rated for commercial work?
It is classified for commercial use, which is where 4/0 feeders normally live: service entrances, panel feeders, and large motor circuits in commercial and industrial raceway.
8) Is the Southwire 4/0 SIMpull Head CSA certified for Canadian jobs?
No. The SPH4/0-18 is not CSA certified, so if your specification or inspector requires CSA marking on pulling accessories, this head will not satisfy it.
