What are the key pieces of equipment required for a successful overhead cable stringing operation?

2025-08-08

A successful overhead stringing project relies on a comprehensive suite of equipment to ensure safety and efficiency. The core components include:

  • Hydraulic Pullers & OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners: These are the most critical machines, used to apply precise tension to the conductor during the pulling process.

  • Conductor Stringing Blocks (Sheaves): These are installed on towers to support the conductor and allow it to roll smoothly during stringing. We offer a wide range of blocks for different conductor types and project requirements, including single, double, and triple sheaves.

  • Anti-Twisting Braided Steel Wire Ropes: A key component for pulling, these ropes are designed to prevent twisting and maintain stability.

  • Reel Stands (Drum Elevators): Used to securely hold and lift the conductor reels, ensuring smooth and controlled unwinding.

  • Swivel Joints & Conductor Grips: These tools connect the conductor to the pulling rope, allowing for free rotation and preventing damage.

  • Dynamometers: Digital dynamometers are essential for real-time monitoring of pulling tension to ensure it stays within safe limits.
