The XIE-FO Series grips have the same basic features as the X-FO models. However the XIE offers an interior pulling eye. The interior eye is attached to a strength member found on some fiber optic cable. When the interior eye is used, the fiber remains neutral and will not detach from the exterior insulation. The grips are manufactured with high strength galvanized wire.
