The Drop-Wire Dead-End offered by PLP showcases a formed wire design specifically engineered to accommodate drop cables ranging in diameter from 0.371 to 0.380 inches. This innovative product features the FIBERLIGN® logo and is designed to securely hold the soft, pliable surface of drop cables without inducing attenuation, an important consideration for maintaining cable integrity. Unlike traditional wedge-type dead-ends, this formed wire design distributes the axial load efficiently, shifting the force to a low, uniform radial compression at the dead-end loop, which results in a secure grip while minimizing pressure on both the cable and messenger. With an impressive installation load range of 70 to 100 pounds and a loaded tension capacity of 250 to 500 pounds, this dead-end is built to withstand challenging aerial environments. Crafted from corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy and coated with latex for additional durability, it is an ideal choice for reliable performance in aerial hardware applications.
