Answer: Our high-quality cable pulling grips (also known as cable socks or stockings) are woven from high-tensile galvanized steel and provide a secure, distributed grip over the end of the cable. This prevents concentrated stress that could damage the cable's sheath. The grip is then attached to a Swivel link, which is a crucial component that allows the cable to rotate freely. This prevents the buildup of torsional forces, or twisting, as the cable is pulled through ducts, conduits, or around corners. The combined use of a grip and a Swivel ensures a smooth, controlled pull that protects the integrity of the cable from start to finish.
