Fairlead Quadrant Block | Durable Cable Management Solution | 10,000 lb Capacity
Fairlead Quadrant Block | Durable Cable Management Solution | 10,000 lb Capacity — Product Overview
The Fairlead Quadrant Block is a precision-engineered cable management tool originally designed for transpacific fiber optic installations. With its generous 60″ (1,524 mm) pulling radius and heavy-duty construction, it provides smooth, controlled guidance for large-diameter cables across a wide range of installation applications.
Equipped with 18 machined rollers mounted on bronze bearings, this block delivers reliable performance under continuous heavy loads. Each roller—8″ wide by 5.5″ diameter—supports a gradual 90° turn, minimizing friction and stress to preserve cable integrity. With a 10,000 lb (44,480 N) capacity, the Fairlead Quadrant Block is ideal for demanding projects in fiber optic, utility, and industrial applications.
