Description
Our wire pulling rope is a double braid, high-tenacity polyester rope made in the USA for cable pullers, tuggers and capstan winches. Polyester gives it very low stretch, low friction and strong resistance to wear, sun and chemicals, and the double braid keeps it torque-free, so it pulls straight without kinking. Utility contractors use it for underground power and telecom installs, transmission and stringing lines, and winch lines. It far exceeds industry standards: every rope's real breaking strength is well above what we advertise, and we test our ropes in house. When you need more strength at the same size, HMPE is the step up.
- A spliced, stitched eye on both ends
- Shrink-wrapped on a heavy-duty wooden reel you can use again
- Works with pullers from Greenlee, Southwire, Gardner Bender, Ensley, Porta-Pull, iTOOLco and others
- Size it with a 4 to 1 safety factor: a 4,000 lb puller needs at least 16,000 lb breaking strength
- White with black, blue and gray tracers, our signature look
Questions
Choosing and using it
What size do I need?
Use a 4 to 1 safety factor. Multiply your puller's maximum force by 4 to get the breaking strength you need.
For example, a puller rated for 4,000 lb needs a rope with at least 16,000 lb of breaking strength. The size table lists the limit for each diameter.
Will it work with my puller?
It is made for high-strength cable pullers and winches. It can be used with pullers and tuggers from Porta-Pull, Greenlee, Gardner Bender, Southwire, Ensley, iTOOLco and others.
How do I get it through the conduit?
Blow pulling twine through the conduit and use the twine to pull the rope through. If the rope is very heavy or the pull is very long, use pull tape instead.
About the rope

A professionally spliced and stitched eye on each end. The rope is shrink-wrapped on a heavy-duty wooden reel that you can use again.
What spec is it made to?
It far exceeds all industry standards. The real breaking strength of every one of these ropes is far above the strength we advertise, and we test our ropes in house, too.
