GMP 5/8" 600lb Break-Away Swivel 71408

Break-away Swivels give you invaluable protection when pulling either fiber optic or coaxial cable


These simple tools provide an inexpensive fracture point between the pulling line and cable avoiding costly cable damage if the cable’s rated pulling capacity is exceeded


The breakaway swivels are 5/8 in. (15.88mm) made from steel


The 5/8 in. size is extremely convenient when working with innerduct sizes below 1 5/8 in. in diameter


The design of the breakaway swivels incorporates a replaceable tension bolt that joins the barrel eye and swivel body. The bolt separates when pulling loads on the cable reach +/-5%. The damaged bolt can then be replaced in seconds using an Allen Breakaway BoltWrench (included) and screwdriver.


The swivel and bolt head are color-coded for fast load identification
GMP uses a steel thrust washer and bushing in the larger break-away swivel and four (4) ball bearings in the smaller version. Both designs provide smooth rotation under load and help to keep twisting forces from reaching the cable.
