Pulling ropes are primarily classified by their material, each offering distinct advantages for different applications.

• Anti-Twisting Braided Steel Wire Rope: This is the industry standard for overhead tension stringing. It's specially braided from multiple strands of high-strength, high-flexibility galvanized steel wire. The braided design prevents the rope from twisting under tension, ensuring a smooth pull and preventing damage to the conductor. It's the ideal choice for long-distance, high-tension pulls.

• High-Strength Synthetic Ropes: These are often used for underground cable laying and medium-voltage overhead projects. Made from materials like double-braided polyester or High Modulus Polyethylene (HMPE), they are lightweight, have very low stretch, and are resistant to moisture and chemicals. Their non-conductive properties make them a safer option for certain environments.
