Caution: The load ratings shown here are based on performance results of certain cable configurations and may not
be representative of all manufacturers ADSS cable designs. AFL strongly recommends that before using this product,
you contact AFL to obtain the recommended load rating and to verify that the wedge dead end has been qualified for
use with the proposed cable. AFL will perform a qualification test at no charge.

Temporary Grip
Temporary Grips are used in stringing the ADSS during sagging and where it is necessary
to make short term catch on the ADSS.
The Temporary grip for ADSS is a high strength aluminum body designed to hold 2,500
pounds or 50% of MRCL of the cable.

Trunnion Assemblies
AFL offers trunnions with various mounting capabilities: bolted, banded or standoff.
Trunnions reduce installation costs by functioning as a pull-through during installation
(maximum line angle for stringing is 15 total, 7.5 per side, number of structures not to
exceed 30). No block or pulley is needed provided these conditions are met.
Features
May be used as a pull-through by removing the bushing inserts
High-strength aluminum
Smaller and more compact design
Facilitates faster installation
Color-coded range taking inserts for easy identification
Versatile mounting styles to fit different structure types: bolted, banded or standoff
Banding and pole hardware supplied by customer
Lowers the total cost of installation
