LSG-X Snake Grips are low profile cable pulling grips designed for installing or replacing wire rope and cable using an existing line. They provide a secure, adjustable grip while maintaining smooth, controlled pulling through blocks and sheaves.
This model features a permanently connected swivel tube assembly, making it suitable for applications where a compact profile and continuous connection are preferred over separable grip systems.
When to choose this product
Best for:
- Cable or wire rope replacement using existing lines in confined or obstructed routing paths
- Applications requiring a low profile swivel to pass smoothly through sheaves, blocks, or bullwheels
Not ideal for:
- Situations where the grip needs to be separated mid-line for reconfiguration or size changes
Product benefits
- Low profile swivel tube assembly reduces snagging risk and allows smoother passage through tight sheaves and rigging systems
- Permanently connected dual grip design maintains consistent alignment during pulls and eliminates risk of incorrect reassembly
- Heavy-duty friction swivel supports controlled rotation, helping minimize cable twisting during installation
- Expanding and contracting mesh adapts to different or identical cable diameters, simplifying inventory and application flexibility
- Permanently greased swivel reduces maintenance requirements and ensures consistent rotation performance over repeated use
- Clearly stenciled size range and working load on the swivel improves on-site verification and supports correct product selection
- Suitable for repeated use when properly inspected, supporting cost control in routine cable installation operations
