We just purchased these lace-up grips so we do not have to slide them down the 
drop.   Not used them yet.

Subject: [AFMUG] Kellems support grips for Cat5 cables

 

Has anyone used the “Chinese finger trap” style support grips for vertical runs 
of outdoor Cat5 cable in conduit?

 

I need to support 8 – 10 cables in a 150 ft straight run of 2 inch conduit, 
there is a pull box with a support hook at the top of this run, then another 
~30 feet of conduit to a box at the top where the individual cables would go 
through glands and out to the radios.

 

I did a test with a grip for 0.85 to 1.00 inch cable diameter, and a cable 
bundle that measured maybe 0.75 to 0.85 inches, and it’s very, very difficult 
to pass the bundle through the grip.  I can’t see sliding 50 feet of cable 
through it.  Even just a foot or two was a challenge.  Yet I’m reluctant to 
just use a larger grip, for fear it won’t grip properly.

 

Is there a trick to using these things?
