Cable Towing Socks, Slings & Pullers

Towing  Socks for pipe, also known as pulling socks. cable grips and cable socks or cable pullers, are generally used for installing cables and small pipe ducts in HDD applications.  They work on the principle of the harder the pull, the tighter they grip.  Our Towing Socks are hand woven using high tensile galvanised steel wire, making them reliale and re-usable over and over again.

They can also be manufactured from Stainless Steel wire for additional durability and strength.

Their main use is in the HDD field is for  pulling cables underground. No Dig Equipment provides special size socks for pulling underground power cables or fiber optic (for the NBN) just for this purpose. A range of standard cable socks are available for common underground cable sizes for single LV and multiple HV cables.  Custom sizes can be manufactured on request.
