The new compact Hooked Hanger Sheave design features an outer, heavy-duty arm, that handles cable tensions up to 12,000 pounds around any pulling angle from 0 to 180 degrees. We have also designed a light-duty, second arm used for suspending the sheaves inside the manhole. This second arm conveniently stores inside the heavy-duty arm keeping it out of the way when the application does not require its usage. Simply remove two small screws when the light-duty arm is needed and the arm is ready to use.
The sheaves are fitted with high capacity, iron-copper, flanged bushings that are self-lubricating. Finally, our 1-1/4Â diameter axles, which are some of the largest and strongest in the industry, come with a large rubber coated handle for easy installation or removal.
