The 24" Standard Duty Cable Block Pusher by GMP Tools is a specialized tool designed for efficiency during aerial plant installations. Crafted from durable aluminum channel, this pusher features locking pins at both ends for secure operation. Its large, rounded flanges accommodate various lasher surfaces, making it an essential component when lashing multiple cables, as it maintains the necessary distance between the first cable block and the lasher. Often referred to as the "shotgun," this tool is strategically positioned between the lasher and the first cable block during new construction, preventing the lasher from rising and ensuring a seamless cable installation process.
