This lightweight grip features a single “V” groove jaw with a 3-inch jaw length, providing secure contact with conductors while minimizing damage. Built from drop-forged, heat-treated steel, the grip offers durability and consistent performance in field conditions. Each unit is hand-inspected and tested to its rated load to ensure reliable operation.
