What are the different materials and mesh weaves used for professional pulling grips?

2025-08-16

Professional wire mesh cable pulling grips are engineered from high-strength materials and come in different weaves to suit various applications.

  • Galvanized Steel: This is the most common material due to its high tensile strength and durability. It's often used for heavy-duty applications like pulling large conductors for overhead lines or underground power cables.

  • Stainless Steel: Offering superior corrosion resistance, this material is ideal for marine environments, offshore projects, or installations in chemical plants.

  • Aramid Fiber (Non-Metallic): Also known by the trade name Kevlar, these non-metallic grips are lightweight and non-conductive. They are the preferred choice for pulling sensitive fiber optic cables or for applications where electrical insulation is a concern.

  • Mesh Weaves: The weave pattern of the mesh determines the grip's strength. Single weave grips are suitable for light- to medium-duty pulls, while double weave or multi-weave grips offer significantly greater strength and are used for heavy, long-distance pulls. For projects with extremely high tension, a multi-weave design provides the strongest and most reliable grip.
