How do I choose the correct size and type of pulling sock?

2025-08-15

Choosing the correct pulling sock is critical for a safe and successful pull. The wrong size can lead to slippage or cable damage. You should consider two main factors:

  • Cable Diameter: The most important factor is matching the sock's size to the outer diameter of your cable. The sock should fit snugly over the cable to ensure maximum grip. We provide a range of sizes, each specified for a particular cable diameter range.

  • Pulling Force: The sock's rated tensile strength must be equal to or greater than the maximum force the pulling machine will exert. This ensures the sock will not fail under load. Our product specifications clearly list the breaking strength for each model.
