Answer from Ningbo Changshi: Cable pulling sleeves come in various designs, each suited for a specific application. Choosing the right type is critical for a safe and successful pull. The most common types include:

• Single-Eye Pulling Sleeves: These are the most common type and feature a single eye for connecting the pulling rope. They are perfect for straight, single-cable pulls and are the workhorse of most underground cable installations.

• Double-Eye Pulling Sleeves: With an eye at both ends, these sleeves are ideal for "new-for-old" pulls, where a new cable is pulled in while simultaneously removing an old one. This design allows for a secure connection to both cables.

• Lace-Up Pulling Sleeves: This type is open along its length and can be laced onto the cable at any point, not just at the end. This is especially useful for mid-span applications, such as providing temporary support or when a cable end is not accessible.

• Swivel-Eye Pulling Sleeves: These grips incorporate an integrated Swivel. . The swivel prevents the cable from twisting under tension during the pull, which is particularly important for multi-conductor cables or in pulls with multiple bends.

To choose the right one, you must consider the cable diameter, the maximum pulling force, and the type of installation (overhead, underground, or mid-span). Our technical team at Ningbo Changshi can help you select the precise grip from our extensive range to match your project's specifications.
