Southwire SPH8-18 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Southwire SPH8-18 SIMpull head fit?
The SPH8-18 is the 8 AWG head. Southwire builds the SIMpull head line in 8 AWG through 2 AWG, so pick the head that matches the conductor you are pulling, one per conductor. The 18 in the model name is the 18 inch head length used to stagger the conductors in a bundle so they enter the raceway one at a time instead of all at once.
2) Will the Southwire SPH8-18 head clear a tight conduit bend or a crowded raceway?
It is the lowest profile head Southwire offers, and the body measures 1.6 in height by 3.9 in width with a 12.6 extension. That low profile is the point of the product: less added bulk at the pulling end means less chance of hanging up at a bend or in a conduit that is already near fill.
3) Why are SIMpull pulling heads sold in staggered lengths, and which length is the SPH8-18?
Staggered lengths let each conductor in a multi wire pull start at a different point, which keeps the heads from bunching at the conduit mouth and reduces pulling tension. The SPH8-18 is the 18 inch version for 8 AWG, so on a three or four wire pull you would combine it with other head lengths to spread the entry points.
4) Is the SPH8-18 SIMpull head metal or plastic?
Steel, finished in silver. That matters on a hard pull: the head takes the rope tension and the steel body is what carries it rather than the conductor insulation.
5) How many SIMpull SPH8-18 heads come in a pack?
Inner packs hold 5 heads, supplied in cardboard packaging. Since you need one head per conductor, a single inner pack covers a typical three or four conductor pull with a spare.
6) Is the Southwire SPH8-18 pulling head meant for commercial work or residential?
Southwire classes the SPH8-18 as a commercial product. It is a jobsite pulling accessory for conduit runs, not something a homeowner would have use for, and at 0.281 per head it adds almost no weight to the pull.
7) What is the Southwire part number and UPC for the 18 inch 8 AWG SIMpull head?
Manufacturer part number SPH8-18, UPC 032886996832. Order by that number to be sure you get the 8 AWG head at the 18 inch length rather than one of the other staggered lengths or gauges in the 8 AWG to 2 AWG range.
