Grip Selection Chart

Home > Wire Mesh Pulling and Support Grips > Grip Selection Charts


Grips are designed for a specific range of cable diameter. To ensure you are selecting the correct grip for the job you are pulling:

1/ Determine the outside cable diameter,

2/ Wherever possible use a closed mesh that assembles over the cable end. Use a split mesh grip when the cable end is not available,

3/ Select the eye style best suited to your requirements,

4/ Estimate the tension to be put on the grip, calculate the working load you require allowing for correct safety factors suitable for the application,

5/ Taking each of the above into account - look in the Size Range column of the appropriate grip - and determine the part number best suited to your pull.

Multiple cable installation selection information:

Initially determine the type of grip required for the installation. The information below will assist you in selecting the correct Grip size for installations using multiple cables.

• When pulling multiple cables of the SAME diameter, refer to Table 1 below to determine the correct grip size

• When pulling more than one cable of DIFFERENT diameters, measure the circumference of the bundle and refer to Table 2 below to determine the correct grip size.
