Introducing the Fairlead Quadrant Block, a high-performance solution originally designed for the installation of transpacific fiber optic cable, now available for a wide range of cable installation projects. Engineered to handle even the most demanding installations, this quadrant block features a 60" (1,524 mm) pulling radius, providing optimal support and protection for various cable types. Whether you’re working with high-density fiber optic cables or standard utility cables, the Fairlead Quadrant Block ensures smooth, efficient, and safe cable handling.
Product Overview:
The Fairlead Quadrant Block is built with precision and durability in mind, equipped with 18 machined rollers mounted on bronze bearings. These rollers, each measuring 8" (203 mm) in width and 5.5" (140 mm) in diameter, allow cables to navigate a gradual 90-degree turn, minimizing friction and stress on the cable during installation. This design makes it an ideal choice for challenging installations that require precision and careful handling, such as large-scale fiber optic networks or heavy industrial applications.
Key Features:
