MV HV Power Cables – Transmission & Distribution
Thorne & Derrick distribute the complete range of Cable Pulling Products to support safe installation of LV, MV & HV cables into underground ducts, conduits and trenches by cable pulling, laying and jointing contractors.
Slingco cable socks are manufactured from high tensile galvanized or stainless steel wire rope or aramid for high strength, corrosion resistant and durable support – the cable socks exert maximum grip onto the outer cable sheath.
♦ Note – when selecting cable socks check the working load of the cable does not exceed design load of the sock.
Subject to special order customised cable socks can be produced with longer length, larger diameters (up to 1050mm) and breaking strains exceeding 120,000lbs.
