Cable socks, also known as cable pulling socks or mesh cable grips, are braided steel pulling grips designed to securely hold cable, conduit, or pipe during pulling operations. The mesh construction tightens around the cable as tension increases, creating a strong and reliable grip without damaging the cable sheath.
They are commonly used in:
Cable socks use a woven mesh design that expands to fit over the cable or conduit. Once pulling tension is applied, the braided mesh contracts and grips the surface securely.
This allows installers to:
Our cable socks are built for demanding underground environments and are widely used across civil and infrastructure industries.
These pulling grips are ideal for contractors requiring reliable cable management during underground installation projects.
Our cable socks are manufactured using high-quality galvanised steel for improved durability and corrosion resistance.
Cable socks are used to securely grip and pull cable, conduit, and pipe during underground installation and cable pulling operations. They are commonly used in HDD, trenchless drilling, telecommunications, and electrical projects.
Cable pulling socks use a braided mesh design that tightens around the cable when pulling force is applied, creating a secure grip without damaging the cable surface.
Cable socks are widely used in civil construction, telecommunications, electrical infrastructure, utility installation, and trenchless drilling industries.
Yes. Galvanised cable socks provide improved corrosion resistance and durability, making them suitable for harsh underground and industrial environments.
Yes. Our cable socks are manufactured to meet the requirements of Australian HDD contractors and utility installers.
Selecting the right towing head is critical to a successful HDD installation. Poorly designed or incorrectly sized towing heads can increase installation risk and place unnecessary stress on the product pipe.
Our towing heads are manufactured with durability and field performance in mind, helping contractors complete installations safely and efficiently.
