Key Features
- Cable Diameter Range: Accommodates cable diameters from.250" to.490", covering a wide range of pulling applications on a single grip platform.
- Closed Mesh, Multi Weave Construction: Heavy-duty closed mesh with a multi weave pattern distributes pulling tension evenly for a secure, consistent grip along the length of the cable.
- Rotating Eye: The rotating eye reduces cable twisting and torque transfer during pulls, helping protect cable integrity and reduce installer fatigue throughout the run.
- Heavy Duty Design: Constructed for demanding pulling jobs where reliability under continuous, high-tension load is critical.
- Standard Length: Sized to standard length for typical cable and wire pulling operations without the added bulk of an extended-length grip.
- Multiple Model Options: Offered in L8621, L8624, L8625, L8626, L8627, and L8632 configurations, allowing installers to match the grip to the specific cable and job requirement.
- Pulling Eye Attachment: The rotating eye is designed for straightforward connection to pulling lines, rope, or winch cable during conduit and raceway pulls.

Leviton L8624 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What cable diameters do the Leviton L8621 through L8632 wire mesh pulling grips cover?
The Leviton rotating eye mesh grips are sized by cable OD, one grip per range. L8621 covers 0.250 to 0.490 inch, L8624 covers 1.00 to 1.24 inch, L8625 covers 1.25 to 1.49 inch, L8626 covers 1.50 to 1.74 inch, L8627 covers 1.75 to 1.99 inch, and L8632 covers 3.50 to 3.99 inch. Measure the jacket OD of the cable you're pulling and pick the range it falls inside. A grip sized above your cable will not close down enough to bite.
2) Can I use a closed mesh grip to pull cable that is already terminated on one end?
No. A closed mesh grip is a sock with a closed end, so it has to slide over the free end of the cable. If both ends are terminated or one end is landed in a panel, you need a split-lace or lace-up style grip that wraps around the cable mid-run. The Leviton L8621 family is closed mesh only.
3) Does a rotating eye pulling grip actually stop cable from twisting during a pull?
The rotating eye on the Leviton mesh grip lets the pulling line spin independently of the mesh, so torque built up in the rope or winch line isn't transferred into the cable. That matters on long conduit runs and multi-bend pulls where twist can work against the jacket and the conductor lay. A fixed-eye grip passes that rotation straight into the cable.
4) Do I need one grip per cable when pulling multiple conductors in a conduit?
Match the grip to what it is closing around. Each of these Leviton grips is rated to a single cable OD range, from 0.250 to 0.490 inch on the L8621 up to 3.50 to 3.99 inch on the L8632. If you are pulling several conductors together, measure the bundled diameter as taped and choose the range that bundle falls in; if you grip each cable separately, size each grip to that cable's own jacket OD.
5) What size Leviton grip do I need for 4/0 or larger feeder cable into switchgear?
Go by measured jacket OD, not conductor size. Large multiconductor feeders typically land in the 1.00 to 1.99 inch band, covered by the L8624, L8625, L8626 and L8627. Very large single runs or big bundled assemblies up to 3.99 inch are covered by the L8632. Panel and switchgear feeder installation is one of the applications these grips are built for.
6) What does multi weave mean on a wire mesh pulling grip, and why choose it over single weave?
Multi weave means more strands crossing per section of the mesh sleeve, so the gripping force is spread over more contact points along the cable. That keeps localized pressure on the jacket lower at a given tension, which is the reason to pick it for heavy feeder and high-tension pulls rather than a lighter single weave sock.
7) Is the Leviton wire mesh pulling grip approved for use on Canadian job sites?
It carries CSA certification, which is the listing Canadian inspectors look for. Country of origin is Mexico.
8) Is this a standard length or extended length pulling grip?
Standard length. These Leviton rotating eye grips are the standard-length mesh, which keeps the assembled grip shorter going around bends and through couplings. Extended-length grips give more mesh contact for very heavy or slick-jacketed cable, but they add bulk at the head of the pull.
