Description

  • Three types of Dead-ends offered: Limited Tension, Medium Tension and High Tension, this item is Limited Tension
  • Fittings and grounding accessories available and can be included in the same container with the suspension.
  • Limited Tension Dead-ends: Intended for relatively low tension application usually associated with short span construction. They are not cable or line design specific but are designed to fit broad diameter ranges. Holding performance will vary by specific cable brand and operating conditions. Therefore, no specific holding strength rating is possible. In general, Limited Tension Dead-ends are intended for use with these conditions and limitations:
  • Low tensions, approximately: – 1,000# (4.4kN) maximum initial (stringing/nominal axial/long-term) tension – 2,500# (11.1 kN) maximum loaded (working/loaded axial/short-term) tension
  • Short spans: – 300′ – 600′ (91-183 m) typical maximum spans depending upon cable OD and tensions – not recommended for critical crossing spans (highways, rivers, etc.); see Medium or High Tension Dead-ends
