Gripple 3/8" Cable Rope Grip for Down Guy Wire
GRIPPLE 3/8" Down Guy Wire Cable Rope Grip
Wire or wire rope is inserted into a channel in the Gripple, where it is gripped by a spring-loaded roller or wedge, and tensioned by being pulled through. The channel is mirrored on the opposite side of the Gripple, allowing the wire rope to loop through an anchor eyelet and return back through the Gripple for adjustment and Termination under load. designed for use when Terminating 3/8" EHS steel cable used for Telescopic Mast Down Guy Wire. These particular Gripples are made for Stranded Wire Rope as opposed to those made for Solid Hi-Tensile or Barbed wire.
Then start Erection by extending the Top-most Tube section with your Antenna, Antenna Lead and Guy Wires attached, Locking it down with the Set Screw nested in the next Section and then repeating with each successive Tube section until fully erect.
Start from the Lowest Tube Section, and repeat the Guy Tensioning Process, moving up one level at a time level, until all Guy levels are tense.
PLEASE DO NOT THINK YOU CAN SHORTCUT THIS PROCESS... by extending the Mast Fully on the Ground horizontally, and then Raising it, under load, up through vertical and then Guying it down. This will only Crease, Fold or Collapse the Mast to Fail under Load; as NO Mast is designed to erect in this Fashion. A lot of Us are forced to undertake projects with a minimal or non-existant work force... the method prescribed above is one that can be performed solo in the absence of wind, just take your time and do one thing at a time... Safety First!
