Greenlee 30484 Basket-Type Pulling Grip, Galvanized Steel Mesh
The Greenlee 30484 is a multiple strength, basket-type pulling grip engineered for heavy-duty, long-distance pulls on overhead transmission lines, bare or insulated conductors, and wire rope. Built with a triple-to-double-to-single weave galvanized steel mesh and a forged steel rotating swivel eye, this grip is sized for cable diameters of 1.5 - 1.74 In. Color coding is applied for easy size identification on the jobsite, and the grip is manufactured in the United States for dependable field performance.
Key Features
- Cable Size: Designed for cable diameters ranging from 1.5 - 1.74 In, ensuring a secure, properly sized grip.
- Durable Construction: Triple-to-double-to-single weave galvanized steel mesh body resists corrosion and withstands the stress of heavy-duty pulling operations.
- Rotating Forged Eye: Forged steel swivel eye rotates freely, reducing cable twist and torque transfer during long pulls.
- Basket-Type Grip: The basket weave design distributes pulling tension evenly along the mesh, protecting conductors during installation.
- Color-Coded Sizing: Color coding allows crews to quickly identify the correct grip size, reducing installation errors in the field.
- Multiple Strength Rating: Engineered as a multiple strength grip suitable for demanding, long-distance overhead transmission line pulls.

Greenlee 30484 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What cable diameter does the Greenlee 30484 pulling grip fit?
The 30484 basket grip is sized for cable outside diameters of 1.5 to 1.74 inches. Basket grips grab by compressing the mesh around the cable, so staying inside that range matters: a cable under 1.5 inches won't let the weave close down tight enough to hold under tension, and anything over 1.74 inches won't seat in the basket. Measure the actual OD over the jacket or the conductor, not the AWG or kcmil rating, before you pick the size.
2) Is a single-weave grip enough, or do I need the multiple-strength type like the 30484?
Single-weave grips are for short, light pulls and support work. The 30484 is a multiple strength grip, built with a triple-to-double-to-single weave mesh, which is what you want for heavy-duty, long-distance pulls on overhead transmission lines. The extra weave layers near the eye end carry the load where tension is highest. If your pull is a short conduit run with light cable, a lighter single-weave grip is the simpler choice.
3) Can I use this grip to pull a bare overhead conductor, or is it only for insulated cable?
Both. The 30484 is built for overhead transmission line work on bare or insulated conductors and also on wire rope. The basket weave spreads pulling tension along the length of the mesh instead of concentrating it at one point, which is what lets it hold a bare conductor without crushing it.
4) What does the rotating eye on the Greenlee 30484 actually do for a long pull?
The eye is forged steel and swivels. On a long-distance pull the rope or winch line builds up torque, and a fixed eye transfers that twist straight into the conductor. The swivel lets the eye rotate independently so the cable behind it stays untwisted. That is the main reason to choose this grip over a fixed-eye version for transmission line pulls.
5) Will a galvanized steel mesh grip hold up to outdoor utility work?
Galvanized steel is the body material on the 30484, and the zinc coating is there specifically to resist corrosion on a grip that lives on a line truck and gets used in the weather. The mesh and the forged eye are both steel, so there is no plastic or alloy component to fail under pulling stress.
6) How do crews tell Greenlee basket grips apart on the truck when several sizes look the same?
Greenlee color codes these grips by size, so a crew can pull the right one off the rack without measuring the mesh. On a job with several conductor sizes staged at once that is the fastest way to avoid grabbing an undersized grip. The 30484 is the 1.5 to 1.74 inch size.
