Additional Information

Additional Information

 N/A The Ouchless Lewis Grips™ do not have the metallic fraying as traditional Grip do thereby eliminating the chance of being injured from metallic strands that have been abraded. Ouchless Grips™ can also be used when a metallic grip is unsuitable, such as pulling in an energized environment.

  • Easier to Load & Remove
  • No Wire Frays or Wire Cuts
The Aramid fiber strand can be used in essentially all grip configurations. However when used around coastal areas or in corrosive environments the Stainless Steel option is still superior.

Note

Note

 N/A When using a pulling grip made of Aramid fibers or metal wire, always tape the bare end of the cable that will be inserted into the grip. This will eliminate a sharp edge exposure and prolong the life of your grip.
