The Lemco Strand Brake offers safety and productivity to the strand crew. The three-bolt clamp does not have to be opened or closed for installation or removal. The avoidance of traffic accidents and private property damage in easements is gained productivity. The brake replaces most multiple splices, set-ups, and increases the length of runs. It works equally well on 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8" strand. During pull-out it is “free-running” as the brake creates no drag and does not scrape the strand’s galvanized coating. Plated steel and stainless steel cable.
