"Chicago" Grips
Klein grips offer total wire and cable-pulling capability for the power utility,
telecommunication and many other industries.
Klein "Chicago" and "Haven" Grips are widely used in the power,
communications and general construction fields to pull wire and cable, and to maintain temporary
tension until it can be permanently terminated. These grips are to be used for pulling up lines to
tension only and are not to be used as anchors.
Klein has designed and built standard and custom grips of outstanding quality since 1885. They are
proven dependable. Our complete line includes a type and size for every application.
There is a Klein grip for virtually every type of wire and cable, including:
- Extra-high-strength cables, messenger, guy strand and conductors.
- Bare wire.
- Large-diameter conductors.
- Bare A.C.S.R., aluminum and stranded-copper cables.
- PVC-covered conductors.
- Weatherproof wire.
- Telephone cable.

| Klein "Chicago" Grips have locking loop handles, standard
on most grips and available on hot-line grips by ordering with spring. The locking feature allows
the jaws to be held in an open position for easier placement on wire or cable. Saves substantial
time, makes grip positioning easier than with wedge or bolt-on designs. To lock, open jaws and fold
loop handle toward the side plates. |

- The serpentine jaws of this grip series are specially machined to allow insertion of insulated
conductor through the jaws, which reduces danger of slippage which might result in insulation
damage.
- Eliminates neccessity of stripping sinsulation from conductor.
- Round inside-jaw contour.
