Manufactured from custom drop-forged, machined, and heat-treated steel, the 1611-20 is built to withstand demanding field conditions while providing long-lasting durability. Each grip is individually hand inspected, actuated for proper function, and rigorously tested to its rated load, ensuring dependable performance and safety on every job.

Designed for weatherproof-coated copper, ACSR, and AAC conductors, this Chicago Grip accommodates cable diameters from 0.20 to 0.40-Inch (5.08 to 10.16 mm).
