This is a cable pulling grip designed for overhead utility line work where large, specialty-coated support and utility cables need to be held securely without damaging the covering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eCovered conductors are the challenge. Standard serrated jaws can bite through or scar an HDPE covering. The 1649928 uses carbide grit-coated jaws that provide a firm, slip-resistant hold without damaging cable coatings, and an optimized jaw design that opens wide enough for larger and specialty-coated cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe jaws are parallel type, 4-3\/8\" (11.2 cm) long, and accept cable diameters from 0.870\" to 1.610\" (22.1 to 40.9 mm). A spring-loaded gripping mechanism keeps the grip in place on the cable, which speeds setup and keeps it from walking off while you rig. There is no hot latch, swing latch or locking handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe large handle loop opening fits a wide variety of hooks and rigging hardware, so it works with the hoists and come-alongs crews already carry. Klein rates it for a 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) maximum safe load. The steel grip measures about 13-7\/8\" x 2-3\/8\" x 7-7\/8\" (35.3 x 6.1 x 20.1 cm) and weighs 7.6 lb (3.4 kg). Made in USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eWho should buy it: line crews, utility contractors and tree-wire installers who pull and tension covered conductors and need a grip sized for large
