Technical Specifications – Slingco Cable Pulling Heads

To assist in selecting the right model, here are the current Slingco Subsea Pulling Head specifications. These units are machined internally for precise fit while sharing outer geometries for compatibility.

Models ZPH15107–ZPH15110 and ZPH15111–ZPH15113 share common external designs and are internally machined to match your specific cable diameter.

Why Choose Slingco Cable Pulling Heads?

✅ Heavy-Duty Engineering
Designed for subsea cable pull-ins and high-tension onshore installations. Withstands rugged conditions including marine environments, trench pulls, and offshore wind cable installations.

✅ Maintains Cable Alignment
Precision design helps keep cables straight and tensioned during seabed laying or ducting—crucial for large, sensitive, or armored cables.

✅ Damage-Free Pulling Process
Internally machined to prevent crushing or straining cables, reducing installation risk and extending cable lifespan.

✅ Optimised Grip & Load Handling
Built to handle high break loads and maintain grip over long pulls, even in wet or submerged conditions.

✅ Rotating Eye Options
Many models feature rotating eye ends for easier swivel connection (note: not load-bearing under tension).

Ideal Applications

Slingco pulling heads are engineered for:

• Subsea cable pull-ins

• Offshore wind turbine installations

• Heavy industrial electrical cable pulls

• Underground conduit cable installations

• Rail and infrastructure cabling

⚠️ Sizing Guidance & Safety Information

• Overlapping Range?
  If your cable diameter falls between two size ranges, always select based on required break load. If both options meet load needs, choose the smaller grip for a tighter hold.

• Custom Dimensions Available:
  Contact us for a fully dimensioned datasheet with exact tolerances (typically ±5%).

• Use with Swivels Recommended:
  Though some pulling heads include rotating eyes, they do not rotate under load. For tensioned applications, always use with a suitable line swivel.

Slingco

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 galvanised 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.

Slingco cable socks (or cable grips) for pulling and laying power, telecom, fibre optic, subsea and umbilical cables into trench, duct or stringing onto overhead line towers – this includes single eye, double eye, open ended and lace-up type cable socks.
