Cable Grips for domestic installation

Application: Cable grips designed for the pulling cable through quickly and safely without having to strip the cable first or tie it off. It simply slipped over the cable, grips it firmly even with low pulling tensions and easily removes it after installation. 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 grip.

Key Features:

• 3 types of the attachment to the pulling rod: M5 screw connection, pulling eye and combined;
• The ends of the cable grips are not soldered or pressed. Instead they are woven back to the beginning of the cable grip and therefore minimizes the risk of injury for human as well as for cable;
• Broad range of models for the cables 4 - 31 mm diameter;
• Integral swivel equipped (some models);
• Made of galvanized steel (stainless steel on request)

Cable Grips for underground cabling

Application: Designed for the cable installation in underground environment: cable ducts, trenches, collectors, etc. They have big pulling force and can be made from galvanized or stainless steel. 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.

Key Features:

• Highly flexible 19 strand double cord;
• 3 types of the attachment to the rope or the pulling rod;
• Special grips for cable griping in any point (Split);
• Cable grips for grip one, three and four cables simultaneously;
• Wide range of models for the cables 6-180 mm diameter; Pulling force: up to 63.5 kN
• Can be manufactured to specific lengths and can be fitted with cable eye stiffeners (thimbles) as required.

Cable Grips for fibre optical cables

Application: Designed for the fibre optical cables installation in different environments. They are made from highly flexible strands. The multiple grading of the mesh guarantees a uniform transfer of tension to the cable over the entire working length. The grip encloses the cable tightly along the whole length of the mesh. The pressed ferrules which are chamfered in the direction of tension and the back woven ends are a significant safety provision.

Key Features:

• Manufactured using highly flexible 19 strand double cord with the multiple grading of the mesh;
• 2 types of the attachment to the rope; Cables able to pass through the cable grip with double eyes;
• Ability to transfer the greater part of the tension to a central metallic tension relief of the cable and only a small part of the tension may be transferred to the cable coating;
• Wide range of diameters and pulling forces.

Cable Grips for overhead cabling

Application: Designed specially for the overhead cables. They adapted to the large distance between pylons and the large wind loads because of the triple weave construction and an effective cable gripping action over the entire working length. The observance of all parameters important for safety has been confirmed in extensive tests in a recognised test centre.

Key Features:

• Meets and exceed health and safety legislation;
• A safety factor of three is standard for overhead cable grips from Katimex;
• Highly flexible 19 strand double cord with the three-step graduation of the mesh;
• Aluminium ferrules protect the cable grip from damage from the sharp-edged ends of the cable;
• The overhead cable grip with an integral eye is particularly elastic;
• Wide range of models: 6 - 63 mm diameter; 600 - 1900 mm; Up to 147,2 kN.

Suspension and Support Grips

Application: Grips ensure that cables are safely held in various fields of application. They can be used to guide cables over large vertical distances, allow to the tension uniformly spread over the cable and avoid their damages or breaks. Cable support grips are ideal for the temporary and mobile installations of electrical equipment. In contrast to traditional cable fixing devices, cables with cable support grips can be secured quickly and simply. Suspension grips use under extra ordinary stresses and strains, like in wind parks, lifts, cranes etc.
Key Features:

• They can be made from a zinc or stainless steel wires and are equipped with thimbles;
• The ends of the grips are not soldered or pressed but woven back to the beginning of the cable grip. The pressed sleeves ensure a regular load of the full length of the mesh;
• Manufactured using highly flexible 19 strand cord (suspension-double cord).

Hose Securing Grips

Application: They guarantee safe fixing of high-pressure hoses and prevent serious injuries and material damages in the cases of the sudden  loosing of a hose from an armature.
Key Features:

• The hose securing grips are supplied in zinc coated wire or stainless steel and are equipped with thimbles (available in steel or stainless steel);
• The ends of the grips are not soldered or pressed but woven back to the beginning of the hose grip. The pressed sleeves ensure a regular load of the full length of the mesh;
• Highly flexible 19 strand double cord;
• 2 types of the attachment: lateral eye and double eye; Cables able to pass through the cable grip both types.
• Wide range of models for the hoses 8 - 110 mm diameter;
• Working length: 740 - 1000 mm; Breaking load: up to 106,1 kN.
