Chicago Grip w/Latch, Bare Conductors to 0.4-Inch

Klein Tools 1656 Series Chicago Grips have a round, smooth inside jaw contour making it perfect for work with stranded copper cables. These smooth jaws grip with maximum contact and are less likely to cause cable deformation. This grip also has a hot-line latch designed for placing a grip on a cable with a hot-line stick. The three notches in the hot-line latch adjust the balance of the grip to better match the direction of the cable sag. Grips are rigorously tested and pulled to rated load to ensure the highest quality and reliability.

Warnings

• When used on/near energized lines, ground, insulate, or isolate grip before pulling.
• Do not exceed rated capacity.
• Before each use, clean jaw area and inspect grip for proper operation to avoid slippage.
• Grips are to be used for temporary installation, not for permanent anchorage.
• Always match proper size and type of grip to application.
