The HDFE Series Flex-Eye is a powerful grip for pulling big conductors and will travel smoothly through pulleys. It is made of the highest quality, flexible aircraft strand steel, integrated with a new flexible eye. The eye itself is composed of braided strands (rather than being rigid) to give it maximum flexibility in going around angle pulls or through small openings. Strands of the grip are retained at the head by a stainless steel spring, eliminating a rigid compression sleeve.
