The NEW self closing pocketbook grips from General Machine Products. For use with tensioning OPGW and other aerial conductors

The NEW lightweight Come-Along Pocketbook Grips from General Machine Products combine durability with ease of use. Manufactured at GMP’s Trevose, Pennsylvania facility from high-strength 6061 aluminum, they weigh up to 40% less than competing grips, helping reduce fatigue during handling and setup. Their patent-pending, self-closing design enables quick, one-handed installation—simply snap the grip onto the line and tighten. These features provide greater efficiency and convenience on the job.

These items ship within 3 days or sooner.

Important: Pocketbook grips are only intended for use for the conductor size stamped on the tool. Grips should not be used to hold conductors at sag tension limits for longer than 6 hours and are not designed to be used as dead ends. 
Maximum tension limit: 50% of the rated strength of the conductor or 5,000 pounds, whichever value is smaller.
