What are cable grippers used for?

Cable grippers are frequently used in the power industry. Cable grippers are used as wire gripping tools for the construction and maintenance of overhead lines in power, telecommunications, and railway electrification. The specific methods of use include preparation, clamping the wire, adjusting the positioning, etc.

Cable grippers are mainly used to adjust the sag and tighten the wires of overhead power lines. In the construction and maintenance of various overhead lines such as power, telecommunications, and railway electrification, the wires need to be adjusted accordingly due to changes in parameters such as line length, height, and angle, and cable grippers are special tools designed for this need.
When using cable grippers, first prepare cable grippers suitable for specific working conditions and check whether their components are flexible and reliable. Put the wire to be tightened into the clamping part of the cable gripper, and manually turn the wrench to gradually tighten the wire. On some models of cable grippers, the degree of wire tightening can be accurately controlled by adjusting the positioning device. After use, loosen the clamping device, remove the wire, and store the cable gripper in a dry and clean environment for next use.

The reasonable use of cable grippers by workers can not only improve work efficiency, but also ensure construction quality and safety. In order to maximize the effectiveness of cable grippers, workers should fully understand their working principles and operating methods, and pay attention to daily maintenance and care.
