Double Sheave Stringing Block for Overhead Line Construction | Dual-Pulley Cable Guide for Transmission Projects

Overview

The Double Sheave Stringing Block is a durable and high-efficiency pulley tool designed for guiding conductors, OPGW, ADSS, and communication cables during overhead transmission line construction. With two precision-machined sheaves, it reduces friction, improves cable alignment, and ensures smooth and safe stringing operations across long spans and challenging terrain.

This dual-pulley block is widely used by power utility companies, EPC contractors, and line construction teams for 11kV–500kV transmission projects.

What Is a Double Sheave Stringing Block?

A Double Sheave Stringing Block is a cable-guiding pulley equipped with two sheaves to support and guide conductors during stringing or sagging work. The dual-sheave design offers improved load distribution, smoother running, and reduced conductor wear, making it ideal for multi-layer cable pulling or heavier loads.
