What safety precautions should be taken when using a cable pulling grip?

2025-08-14

Safety is our top priority at Ningbo Changshi. Before each use, always:

  1. Inspect the Grip: Check for any frayed, broken, or rusted wires. If any damage is present, the grip should be immediately replaced.

  2. Ensure Proper Sizing: Confirm that the grip is the correct size for the cable to prevent slippage.

  3. Use a Swivel: For long pulls or pulls with bends, a Swivel should be used between the pulling grip and the winch line. This prevents the cable from twisting and damaging the grip or the cable itself.

  4. Secure the Grip: For high-tension pulls, we highly recommend using steel bands or strong tape to secure the tail end of the grip to the cable, preventing it from opening or snagging.

  5. Adhere to Load Limits: Never exceed the grip's specified Working Load Limit (WLL).

Using these tips will help ensure the safety of your personnel and the integrity of your equipment.
