What Is Stringing Block
MARSHINE Stringing Blocks are mechanical devices designed for overhead power line construction to guide and support conductors, OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) or fiber optic cables during the stringing process. These blocks prevent the conductors from contacting the ground or other objects, ensuring smooth and safe installation of the transmission line.
MARSHINE Stringing Blocks are available in a variety of sizes and configurations – single, double and multi-pulley – to suit different types of conductors and transmission structures, including towers, poles and gantries.
How to Use
Proper use of MARSHINE Stringing Blocks ensures safe and efficient line installation:
Installation: Secure the stringing block to the crossarm, tower or pole using a suitable mounting bracket or attachment point.
Threading: Thread the lead rope through the groove of the stringing block manually or using a small winch system.
Pulling: Secure the wire to the stringing block using a swivel or pull-out clamp, then thread the wire through the block using a tensioner or capstan.
Monitor: Continuously observe the movement of the wire to avoid tangling, excessive vibration or dragging.
Finish: When the wire is paid out, lift the wire and secure it on the insulator, then remove the stringing block.
Maintenance Guide
To ensure the long-term performance and safety of the MARSHINE stringing block, it is essential to regularly maintain the MARSHINE stringing block:
Clean the block: Regularly remove dust, dirt and grease from the pulley surface to maintain smooth rotation.
Check the bearings: Check the bearings for wear or looseness, and lubricate them regularly to avoid friction.
Check the frame: Check the frame and mounting bracket for cracks, rust or deformation.
Tighten the bolts: Make sure all bolts, screws and locking devices are securely tightened before and after use.
Storage: When not in use, store in a dry and clean place to prevent corrosion or material aging.
