CableGlider HD

We recommend a minimum of 8000 watts to run the Heavy Duty Cableglider.

This will depend on the what you are pulling and how far you are pulling it. Condux make three different diameter ropes in three different lengths.

A properly installed fork adapter is extremely important for a successful cable pull. To ensure that your fork adapter doesn't break you must make sure that you set the fork adapter up with the forks closest to the Cableglider and the rope is centered through the adapter opening. If the forks are turned away from the Cableglider the rope will not be centered through the hole and will create excess stress on the fork adapter.

We recommend the Polywater Lubricant J when pulling power cable. It is a water based lubricant that dries slowly over time leaving a thin film of lubricant behind.

Using lubricant lowers your co-efficient of friction allowing you to pull heavier cable longer distances or simply puts less stress on the cable you are using. The co-efficient of friction is calculated two different ways, the first is without lubricant and the other with lubricant. Without lubricant: 2(lb/ft)× the length pulled (ft)×number of 90° bends×1(coef of friction)= (lbs). With lubricant: 2(lb/ft)× the length pulled (ft)×number of 90° bends×.35(coef of friction)= (lbs). Examples of these would be you are pulling 800ft with 3- 90° without lubricant: 2(lb/ft)×800(ft)×2×2×2 (3 90° bends)×1(coef of friction)= 12,800(lbs) and with lubricant: 2(lb/ft)×800(ft)×2×2×2 (3 90° bends)×.35(coef of friction)= 4480(lbs) (Note: the extreme drop in lbs by using lubricant).

Because you have reached the limit of the puller and the puller will not go any further. The anti rotational pawls hold the capstan in place and you may be stepping on the foot control until the chains snap. Release the rope at this point to release the tension, and this will keep the chains from snapping or skipping.

Yes, you can record a pull but only with the addition of the RLT (Running Line Tensiometer) to your Cablegliders arrangement.

Rope, manhole adapter, floor pole mount, elbow, tensiometer, extension frame, jamb skid, sheaves.
