What are the different types of conductor stringing blocks and their applications?
2025-08-08Conductor OHTLstringingequipment.com/Stringing-Blocks--Sheaves.html target='_blank'>Stringing Blocks are essential for the safe and efficient installation of overhead power lines. The type of block you need depends on the project's specific requirements.
-
Single Sheave Blocks: Ideal for pulling a single conductor, guide wire, or OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) on tangent structures.
-
Multi-Sheave Blocks: These blocks, with three or five sheaves, are specifically designed for stringing bundled conductors. Bundled conductors are used to increase the capacity of a transmission line and reduce corona losses.
-
Universal & Angle Blocks: Universal blocks are versatile and can be used on tangent or light-angle structures. Angle blocks are specially designed for structures where the conductor changes direction.
-
Helicopter OHTLstringingequipment.com/Stringing-Blocks--Sheaves.html target='_blank'>Stringing Blocks: These are lightweight blocks designed for installation with a helicopter for large-scale or difficult-to-access projects.
At Ningbo Changshi, we offer a full range of blocks for every type of conductor stringing need.
