Katimex CABLE GRIPS – DOUBLE EYE – GALVANIZED STEEL


KATIMEX® offers a wide range of cable grips for underground cabling. The double eye, galvanized wire cable grip is manufactured using highly flexible 19 strand double cord. Therefore the grip maintains its high flexibility under high tension. The double eye grip enable the cable to be pushed through the grip. The different types of cable grip offer a complete range of sizes to suit cables 10 mm to 180 mm diameter. All strands at the beginning of the grip are bound together and pressed together in a ferrule with an eye. The pressed ferrule is chamfered in the direction of tension to prevent it from snagging in the conduit. The tension is transferred uniformly over the entire length of the mesh. This avoids a concentrated load and helps prevent breakage and damage of the cable. The working length also referred to as nominal length is the effective length of the mesh to the cable using a medium cable diameter (square mesh).
