Cable pulling tools are used in the installation or removal of cables in hard-to-reach places as it provides mechanical advantage and leverage to help pull cables through conduits, ducts or other pathways. Here are some common places where a cable pulling tool can be used:
The specific tools required for a particular cable pulling task depend on factors such as the type and size of cables, the installation environment, and the distance or complexity of the route. HellermannTyton offers three cable pulling tool sets: the Handy Kit is made to fit in a tool box, the Basic Kit is designed for basic cable installation and the Deluxe Kit is intended for carrying out larger installations. The sets come with cable rods in different lengths and with additional accessories including hooks, magnets, lights and storage bags.
Before using the cable rods, assess the installation requirements. This includes the distance to be covered, the type and size of cables, any obstacles in the pathway and the necessary load capacity for pulling. Next, select the appropriate cable pulling tool factoring in the weight and diameter of the cable and any specific challenges. Then connect the cable to the pulling tool. Ensure a secure connection to prevent the cable from detaching during the pulling process.
Start the pulling process by applying tension to the tool. As the cable is being pulled, ensure that there is no resistance and the cable does not get stuck. If this happens however, assess the situation and make adjustments accordingly. This may involve changing the angle or direction of the pull or using additional tools or techniques. Continue pulling the cable until it reaches the desired final position.
All fibreglas rods and rod accessories from HellermannTyton can be screwed together easily at both ends. Cable grips - and expandable metal sleeve - are often used to fasten cables and wires to pulling rods. The grip can easily be clamped around the leading end of the cable for a secure hold.
The cable rods are manufactured from high quality fibreglass which caters for a load carrying capacity of up to 200 kg (approx. 440 lbs).
