Klein USA 1685-31 Parallel Jaw Grip 4-1/2-Inch Length

HIGHLIGHTS:

The Klein Tools 1685-31 Parallel Jaw Grip is a lightweight, compact wire-pulling grip engineered to securely handle an exceptionally wide range of cable sizes and conductor types. Designed for professional utility, telecommunications, and electrical line work, this grip features a 4-1/2-inch round jaw that maximizes contact with the cable to help minimize conductor damage while providing a strong, dependable hold during pulling operations.

The grip incorporates a round inside-jaw contour that distributes gripping force evenly across the cable surface, while the coarse-serrated lower jaw firmly grips insulated conductors, messenger cable, EHS, and guy strand. A built-in hot latch with spring mechanism helps prevent the grip from accidentally falling should the jaws become disengaged from the cable, improving safety and handling in the field.

Constructed from high-strength steel, the 1685-31 is built to withstand demanding pulling applications with a maximum safe working load of 7,500 lb (3,401.9 kg). Its large-diameter pulling eye accommodates large hooks used with hoists, winches, and tackle blocks, making it an ideal choice for overhead line installation and maintenance. Proudly Made in the USA, this grip delivers the durability and reliability professionals expect from Klein Tools.
