Function
Dead-ends are designed to hold insulated cables and bare homogeneous cables in transmission
and distribution construction. Mechanical strength for these dead-ends are superior to that of
homogeneous cables. But, for steel-core cables the strength is approx the same as the breaking
load of the aluminum strands.
This products are manufactured with aluminum covered steel for ACSR and homogeneous
conductor, with copper covered steel for copper conductors and galvanized steel for direct
application on insulator conductor.
These transmission and distribution dead-ends must be used with a clevis thimble and insulators
which have smoothly contoured surfaces adequate groove widths and loop diameters.
Note:
The out layer direction of transmission and distribution dead-ends must be same as that of the
outer standing of the conductor to which it is applied.

A preformed dead end grip (or preformed guy grip or guy-grip dead end) is a type of hardware used in electrical power transmission and distribution systems. It is designed to provide a secure and reliable connection between a guy wire and an anchor point or structure.
The preformed dead end grip is typically made of high-strength steel or aluminum alloy and is installed by wrapping it around the guy wire and tightening it with a torque wrench. This creates a strong, permanent connection that can withstand the tension and stress applied to the guy wire.
The dead end grip is called "preformed" because it is manufactured with a specific shape that matches the contours of the guy wire, ensuring a snug fit and optimal performance. This eliminates the need for time-consuming and potentially unreliable hand splicing or swaging methods.
The dead end grip is commonly used in applications where the guy wire is used to support poles, towers, or other structures that require stability and resistance to wind and other external forces. It provides a secure anchor point for the guy wire, preventing it from slipping or coming loose.
The preformed dead end grip is an essential component in guy wire systems, offering a reliable and efficient solution for anchoring and supporting structures in electrical power distribution networks.
