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.
