ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for pulling small-diameter fragile cable without damaging or deforming the cable. The apparatus includes resilient wheels and at least two flexible bar assemblies. The bar assemblies are entrained around the wheels and include a plurality of bars, each having a flat surface. The bars transfer the resilient pressure of the wheels to the cable and distribute normal tension forces over the area defined by the surface of each bar, thus eliminating point-loading.
