8-20mm Cable Diameter 16-45KN Rated Load Forged Aluminum Alloy OPGW Conductor Gripper Come Along Clamp

OPGW Conductor Gripper for Optical Ground Wire Stringing

OPGW is a conductor and an optical cable at the same time, so a gripper that marks the aluminium or crushes the tube will cost far more than the tool. This gripper is forged from high strength aluminium alloy and uses a bolt design that spreads clamping force along the cable instead of concentrating it.

Product Overview

Four models cover cable diameters from 8mm to 20mm with rated loads of 16KN to 45KN. The forged body keeps weight down for work at height while the anti-slip bolt arrangement stops the cable from creeping during a pull. Jaws are produced with a new machining process that extends jaw life and keeps the grip consistent.

OPGW gripper models

Dimensions and ratings are nominal. Confirm the exact model against the datasheet before ordering.

Design Features and Field Benefits

• Forged Aluminum Alloy Body: Forging gives a strong, light body that protects the OPGW while keeping the gripper manageable for a lineman working at height.
• Anti-Slip Bolt Design: Clamping force is distributed along the cable and the bolts resist creep, so the OPGW does not slide or suffer a local crush during the pull.
• Grip Size Matched to Cable: Each model is sized to a cable diameter band, which keeps contact pressure within the limit that the optical unit can tolerate.
• Long Life Jaws: Jaws machined with a newer process hold their profile longer, so grip stays consistent across repeated pulls.

Selection Guidance

• Match the model to the OPGW diameter; do not use a gripper outside its stated cable range.
• Confirm the rated load against the pulling tension with a margin for dynamic load.
• Inspect jaws and bolts before each pull and replace worn jaws.

Typical Applications

• OPGW stringing on transmission lines
• Optical ground wire installation
• Fiber optic cable pulling and tensioning
• Fast and accurate power line stringing

Quality Control and Delivery

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.
