Southwire SPH6-12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Southwire SPH6-12 SIMpull pulling head fit?
The SPH6-12 is the 6 AWG version of the SIMpull head. It's sized to one conductor gauge, so a 6 AWG conductor is what it attaches to. Southwire builds the same head for 8 AWG through 2 AWG, so for other conductor sizes in the same pull you order the matching head rather than forcing a 6 AWG head onto a different gauge.
2) How long is the SIMpull head and will it get through a tight conduit bend?
The SPH6-12 head extends 12.6 inches with a height of 1.6 inches and a width of 3.9 inches. The low height is the point of the design: it's the lowest profile pulling head Southwire offers, which is what lets it track through sweeps and condulets without hanging up the way a taped-up basket or a bulky hand-made head does.
3) How many SIMpull heads come in a pack?
They're packed 5 to an inner pack in cardboard. That matters if you're pulling a multi-conductor run: one head goes on each conductor, so a 3-wire-plus-ground pull consumes four heads.
4) Why do SIMpull heads come in staggered lengths instead of all the same?
Staggered lengths are deliberate. When you head up several conductors for one pull, the heads land at different points along the bundle instead of stacking side by side into one fat bulge. That keeps the leading edge of the pull slim through bends and boxes. The SPH6-12 is the 12 inch head in that staggered family.
5) Is the Southwire SIMpull pulling head steel, and how much does it weigh?
Steel construction, silver finish, 0.352 lb per head. The light weight means a full set of heads adds almost nothing to the load your puller or rope has to move.
6) Is the SPH6-12 pulling head meant for commercial work or residential?
It's classed as a commercial product. The use case is conduit pulls on commercial and industrial jobs, where feeder conductors in 6 AWG and larger get pulled through long runs and multiple bends. Residential rough-in rarely involves pulls long enough to justify a dedicated head.
7) Do I need anything else to use the SPH6-12, like batteries or a power tool?
No batteries are included and none are required. It's a purely mechanical head: strip the conductor, make it up in the head, and connect your pulling rope or fish tape. What you still need on the job is the rope or tape, a puller or capstan if the run warrants it, and lubricant for the conduit.
