JOINTS Mod. GFT-GGT

FIXED JOINTS Mod. GFT: the fixed joints are specifically designed to connect pilot rope lengths or pulling rope lengths and to pass over the puller or puller-tensioner bull wheels. The special profile minimises the overload on the rope spliced eyes during this passage. They are made of highly tensile galvanised steel. SWIVEL JOINTS Mod. GGT: the swivel joints are suitable to connect the pulling rope to the mesh sock joint mounted on the conductor; they are mounted on thrust bearings and they are designed to avoid torsion strain accumulation. They are made of highly tensile galvanised steel; the special design can bear the high radial loads, which occur during the passage over the pulleys.
