Chicago® Grip for EHS Cable, Curved Jaw
1684-74 - spec sheet
Features
- Made in USA
- For use on aluminum, copper, weatherproof coated wire, PVC covered conductors and messenger and guy strand
- Locking handle keeps jaw open while grip is placed on cable with a hot stick
- When pulling EHS (extra-high-strength) galvanized-steel cable, the galvanizing has a tendency to coat the jaws of any grip, causing the cable to slip
- To reduce the possibility of slippage and damage to the cable, the jaws of this grip are milled on a curve with a double V contour
Warnings
- Before each use, clean jaw area and inspect grip for proper operation to avoid slippage.
- Always match proper size and type of grip to application.
- Do not exceed rated capacity.
- Grips are to be used for temporary installation, not for permanent anchorage.
- When used on/near energized lines, ground, insulate, or isolate grip before pulling.
