Underground

BullWheel

Lightweight and portable, the Slingco Bull Wheel can be assembled by one person. It can also be dismantled and passed through a 3ft x 3ft access opening in the top of a concrete vault. Slingco has developed an 8ft wheel for stringing cables around 180º within underground vaults. The rotating wheel allows operators to impose a bend of up to Ø4 inches on conductor wire inside an underground concrete ‘vault’. Supplied with a two-point wall fixing, the wheel is mounted on an upright post that allows height adjustment between approximately 1ft to 7ft from the ground. Interchangeable circumference sections provide further options depending on application needs. Available in 6ft and 8ft diameter, the Slingco Bull Wheel can also be produced at different sizes to suit your application. The 6ft and the 8ft wheels are designed to withstand an imposed load of 8,000lb (SWL) with a factor of safety (FOS) of 3.

Cable Rollers

HDD Swivels

Slingco Directional Drilling Swivels are designed for horizontal directional drilling or underground cable installation only. Use to counter rotational forces caused by boring. They are able to be greased for removal of dirt and contaminants.

Pulling Harnesses

This staggered pulling sling is designed to allow the pulling of multiple conductors at the same time while minimising the overall diameter of your pulling bundle. Pulling slings come in three leg or four leg versions. Use a swivel for each leg and at the head of the sling to release torsion, allowing conductors to rotate freely. Suggested swivels are listed with each model.

Rotating Eye Grips

Reinforced Eye Underground Cable Socks

This line of cable socks is specially designed for underground applications. The eye is enclosed in an aluminium tube which provides added support when running within conduit and trenches. Plus these underground pulling socks are made from coated airline wire for added strength and flexibility.

Bridge Type Cable Laying Roller

They are of steel construction with zinc plating for general purpose cable installation work in trenches. They are suitable for power, telecoms and utility installations, and can bridge existing cables in trenches or ducts.

Cable Drum Rotator

This is a compact light weight Cable Drum Rotator. Drums are simply rolled up the ramp on to the adjustable rollers to allow it to spin freely.

Compact Bridge Type Cable Laying Roller

This is a compact cable roller for use in narrow trenches and/or in confined areas. * The specification can be adjusted, if required, to suit your individual requirements.

Edge Mount Manhole Lead-In Cable Laying Roller (Heavy Duty)

The manhole cable roller leads the cable from the drum into the jointbox/manhole or the winch bond out of the manhole. * The Diablo Rollers can be substituted with a heavy gauge 89mm tubular Steel Roller fitted oil impregnated maintenance free bushes for use with the heavier cables.

Edge Mount Manhole Lead-in Cable Roller (Light Duty)

The manhole cable roller leads the cable from the drum into the jointbox/manhole or the winch bond out of the manhole. The roller has 2 hooks for location on the edge of the manhole. * The aluminium roller can be substituted with a solid steel roller when using wire winch bond thus preventing damage.

Heavy Duty Straight Line Cable Laying Roller

The diablo is machined with a 107mm radius giving a maximum capacity of 214mm diameter.

R Type - Rotating Multi-Weave Cable Socks

Like the MU type, the rotating eye cable sock has a triple weave construction and is colour coded for ease of identification. The steel forged revolving head is ideal for connecting to Slingco swivels. Warning: The Slingco rotating eye does not revolve under load and does not replace the use of a line swivel. Recommended for undergound pulls. Made of galvanised steel.

RT Type - Rotating Eye Double Weave Cable Socks

Double weave construction for medium to heavy pulling applications in underground installations. Additionally its steel forged revolving head is ideal for connecting to Slingco swivels. Warning: The Slingco RT Type Rotating Eye Cable Sock does not revolve under load. The rotating eye does not replace the need for a swivel.
