Klein Tools 1692-5 Chicago Grip

Klein Tools 1692-5 Grip for High Strength Cables 0.218-Inch

Designed for use on aluminum, copper, weatherproof coated wire, PVC covered conductors and messenger and guy strand. The Chicago style grip was designed for cable sizes from 0.12-Inch to 1.0-Inch (3.10 to 25.4 mm). When pulling EHS (extra-high-strength) galvanized-steel cable, the galvanizing has a tendency to coat the jaws of any grip, causing the cable to slip. Double -InchV-Inch contour reduces the possibility of slippage and damage to the cable.

• 0.218″ Cable capacity
• Double “V” grooves give four-point contact, reducing chance of slipping and providing proper alignment of wire and cable

Warnings:

• Before each use, clean jaw area and inspect grip for proper operation to avoid slippage
• When used on/near energized lines, ground, insulate, or isolate grip before pulling
• Do not exceed rated capacity
• Always match proper size and type of grip to application
• Grips are to be used for temporary installation, not for permanent anchorage
