Sjogren covers the spectrum with Puller Grip lineup

Sjogren Industries continues to offer simple, customizable solutions for its clients.

Such is the case when it comes to Puller Grips.

Sjogren offers its clients four grip styles that factor in operator preference, wire tensile strength, and the type of drawing block hookup.

• The Sjogren SD Series offers an ergonomic handle, allowing the operator to hold the puller securely while easily inserting wire with the other hand. The pivoting head reduces breakage by allowing both inline pull from the die box and tangential pull on the capstan.
• The SH Series Wedge Grips’ machined construction accommodates wire diameter pull force up to 13,600 lbs/6169kg and is fully compatible with Sleeper-Hartley style puller block assemblies. Jaws are easily replaced without additional tool requirements.
• The V Series Wedge Grips have a one-piece cast construction design, which allows for a light, less fatiguing, and more efficient solution for Vaughn-style blocks. They accept wire diameters with pull force ratings up to 50,000 lbs/22,727 kgs. The jaws are easily replaced without additional tool requirements.
• The M Series Wedge Grips are one-piece cast construction with a single spring element, designed for simple jaw replacement for Morgan-style blocks. Pull force achievement is in the 40,000 lbs/18,182 kg range.

The Thumb Release feature found on SH and Vaughn brands allows users to insert and release the wire without putting their fingers near the jaws and wire. This decreases potential injuries while increasing workplace efficiency and safety.

All Sjogren series wedge grips accept various chains and side/top/key slot hook configurations, which address safety and versatility within the product line.

Sjogren’s featured spring-loaded safety chain enhances an operator’s safety by tensioning the puller assembly while stringing up the drawing block. This eliminates the need for the operator to hold the assembly in place during start-up.
