Product Description

KLEIN KPS150-2 Double-Weave, Rotating-Eye Pulling Grips - Medium Length 47416-3 NEW WIRE-MESH GRIPS INTRODUCTION Klein mesh pulling-grips are used for pulling overhead or underground cable, for stringing service or communications lines into building, for pulling wire through conduit, and for general underground construction. Klein grips may be used for pulling bare or insulated wires, and wire rope. They install quickly aqnd easily, and are designed to pass readily through ducts, conduit, blocks and sheaves. Klein grips are reusable and do not damage the cable because pulling tension remains uniform along the length of the grip. The mesh will fit either a single cable, or a bundle of cables. Klein pulling grips are woven of galvanized steel-strong and long lasting. GENERAL APPLICATION INFORMATION KPG junior-duty series is used for small-job requirements where pulling tensions are low. Typical uses are to connect insulated building wire bundles to pulling tape, and pull through conduit. KPL light-duty grips are economical for applications such as industrial plant wiring and rewiring jobs, and in underground electrical construction where pulling tensions are low. KPM medium-duty grips are flexible and easily handled, ideal for use where the exceptional strength of heavy-duty grips is not required. KP and KPS series are recomended for heavy-duty applications for underground installations. The KPS series has a "rotating eye" to allow twists in the cable to spin out during slack periods. KSCK medium-duty slack-pulling grips with closed double-weave mesh are used for final placement of underground cable where cable end is available, or for removing cable. Standard lengths are used in the restricted space for short pulls. Where space is not restricted, longer lengths are used for high-pulling loads. KSSK medium-duty slack-pulling grip applications are the same as the KSCK series except they are used where cable end is not available. Double-weave split mesh has lace closure. KSRK light-duty slack-pulling grips are split mesh, single-weave design with rod closure for quick installation. Applications are similar to KSSK series, except mesh lengths are shorter and are for lower pulling loads.
