-
Cable Drum Jacks / Stands: These support the cable drums, allowing the cable to unwind smoothly and in a controlled manner.
-
Cable Pulling Socks / Grips: Devices that attach to the end of the cable to distribute the pulling force evenly without causing damage.
-
Conduit Rods / Snakes: Used to clear a path and guide a pulling line through underground ducts.

Swivel Links: Connect the pulling line to the cable grip, preventing twisting and torsion of the cable during the pull.
