Condux Tesmec offers a variety of different self-gripping clamps and radial locking clamps.
Self-Gripping Clamps
The self-gripping clamps can be used to anchor and to string conductors (aluminum ACSR...) and steel rope. The body is made of high strength heat forged steel in order to minimize the ratio between weight and working load. The galvanization treatment on the surface protects from oxidation. Condux Tesmec clamps can be provided with machined body clamps or with interchangeable jaws as per the following tables. The most important characteristic of the clamp with interchangeable jaws is the ability to use the same clamp for working on conductors ropes or OPGW of different diameters by only changing the jaws. This feature helps reduce operating costs. New Condux Tesmec clamps can accept a large range of rope and conductor diameters by using a small number of interchangeable or machined jaws.
Special clamp models without jaws are available also for use on conductors.
Special jaws are available upon request.
Warning: it is strictly forbidden to use jaws of different manufacturer.
Radial Locking Clamp
The radial locking clamp can be used whenever a conductor or a rope made of aluminum aluminum/steel copper or steel needs to be stretched. The body is made of high-strength steel and a series of hinged pieces which can be locked by nuts. The interchangeable jaws are made of aluminum. A special hook is provided at one end. The galvanization treatment on the surface protects from oxidation.
