Cable stands, often referred to as cable drum stands or cable jacks, are essential tools for a variety of projects. The main types are:

• Hydraulic Cable Jacks: These use hydraulic pressure to lift and support heavy cable drums, making them ideal for large-scale power line projects.

• Manual Screw Jacks: Operated by a screw mechanism, these are suitable for lighter and smaller cable drums. They are often used for smaller-scale projects or on-site work where portability is a key factor.

• Cable Reel Roller Stands: Unlike jacks that lift the drum, these stands use rollers to support the drum, allowing it to rotate smoothly for paying out cable. They are particularly useful for medium-sized drums and can be a good alternative to traditional jacks.

• Cable Joint Stands: Designed specifically for cable jointing and preparation, these stands provide stable, adjustable support for a cable during splicing or termination tasks.
