NL Pre-Stranded Tension Clamp
NL Pre-Stranded Tension Clamp (also called preformed strain clamp/dead-end grip) is a high-efficiency, bolt-free tensioning hardware designed for overhead transmission & distribution lines. It secures ACSR, AAC, AAAC, or copper conductors to towers/poles, bearing full conductor tension while protecting cables from damage—ideal for 10kV–35kV networks and long-span applications.
Key Features
-
✅ Preformed Helical Design: Even stress distribution, no conductor crushing or abrasion
-
✅ High Holding Strength: Up to 95% of conductor rated breaking load, vibration-resistant
-
✅ Bolt-Free Installation: No tools or torque wrenches; fast field application
-
✅ Corrosion-Resistant: Hot-dip galvanized steel or aluminum alloy for 25 year service life
-
✅ Color-Coded Sizing: Quick model identification (green/brown/yellow/blue)
-
✅ Wide Compatibility: Fits ACSR, aluminum, and steel-reinforced conductors
-
✅ Cost-Effective: Reusable design; lower installation/maintenance cost than bolted clamps
