On a long pull the rope is under tension and also under torque. A clamp that lets the rope rotate will slowly unwind the strand lay and weaken it. This anti twist gripper uses a self-tightening rack that grips harder as the load rises and holds the rope against rotation.
The body is heat treated alloy steel and the gripping rack is shaped so the load itself increases the clamping force. The series covers 11-30mm rope with rated loads from 50KN to 200KN. Because the clamp bites along the rope rather than at a single point, the strand is held without the local crushing that a simple jaw clamp produces.
| Reference | Rope Diameter (mm) | Rated Load (KN) | Weight (KG) |
|---|---|---|---|
| SKG-5 | 11-16 | 50 | 7 |
| SKG-10 | 16-22 | 100 | 14 |
| SKG-20 | 22-30 | 200 | 23.5 |
Dimensions and ratings are nominal. Confirm the exact model against the datasheet before ordering.
Units are assembled in an ISO 9001 certified workshop. Frames are checked for sheave alignment and axle straightness, load bearing parts are inspected before assembly, and finished units are function checked before packing. Export packing is a plywood case with a moisture barrier, and a 12 month warranty covers manufacturing defects. Inspection records and, on request, third party load test certificates can be supplied with the shipment.
For project specific configurations, drawings or inspection requirements, send the conductor size, rated load and destination port with your enquiry.
