- When pulling EHS (extra-high-strength) galvanized-steel cable, the galvanizing has a tendency to coat the jaws of any grip, causing the cable to slip
- To reduce the possibility of slippage and damage to the cable, the jaws of this grip are milled on a curve with a double ''V'' contour
- Available with hot-line latch and spring
- Manufactured in the United States to provide line workers with maximum strength and durability
