Why is conductor groove sizing on bullwheels and sheaves so important?
2025-08-14
The proper sizing of grooves on bullwheels and sheaves is vital to prevent conductor damage, particularly in high-tension stringing. The groove diameter must be large enough to accommodate the conductor without causing stress or deformation. The lining of the grooves should also be made from a durable polymer to protect the conductor's surface. Incorrect groove sizing can lead to conductor scuffing, bending, or damage to the outer strands, which can affect the conductor's long-term performance. Our equipment is manufactured to strict industry standards, featuring precision-machined, polymer-lined bullwheels and sheaves to protect your valuable conductors.
