ABSTRACT:
A grip for cable, especially fragile cable such as fiber optic cable having a fragile connector at one end thereof. The grip comprises an elongated, hollow protective sheath with an open rearward end for receiving the connector therein, a pulling device coupled at the forward end of the sheath by means of a forwardly tapered nose piece and an open mesh sleeve coupled at the rearward end of the sheath for engaging the cable upon a longitudinal stretching thereof which radially reduces the sleeve around the cable. The pulling device comprises a shaft journalled for free rotation on the nose piece by ball bearings mounted in the nose piece to allow the sheath to rotate about its longitudinal axis as it is being pulled. A portion of the sheath body is made flexible to facilitate its movement through curved conduits and other curved passageways and the mesh sleeve is detachably coupled to the rearward end of the sheath to facilitate the manual detachment of the sleeve for ease of loading the connector into the rearward end of the sheath.
