Important Utility Supplies For Contractors

December 29, 2021

The availability of utilities like electricity, gas, and water is a fundamental right for citizens. However, it is essential to have the required infrastructure to ensure an uninterrupted supply of utilities. Without the existence of sound infrastructure, effective distribution of utilities is impossible. 

 

Contractors and city departments responsible for setting up the required infrastructure to supply utilities need access to the best quality utility supply, equipment, and necessary hardware. Dependable names like AMAC equipment provide the best tools required for overhead and underground cable pulling. 

 

 

Types of utility supplies

 

Aerial Tools

As the name suggests, these tools help contractors successfully pull overhead cables with the correct tension covering large distances. Let's take a look at some of the aerial tools.

 

  • Single roller cable blocks
  • Pole mount cable blocks
  • Overlash & economy blocks
  • Pole bracket & mount adapter
  • Cable benders
  • Set-up brackets
  • Corner blocs (45 and 90 degrees)
  • Cable pulling grips
  • Swivels
  • Open Style Fiber Optic Cable Pulling Trailer

 

Underground tools

Underground cables are essential for telecommunication and electricity supply. Even optical fiber internet cables are underground nowadays. To ensure the safe installation of underground cables, the availability of underground tools and equipment like the following are necessary.

 

  • Duct rodders
  • Pull tape
  • Cable pulling grips

The quality of this equipment has to be top-notch, or else the entire project can be in jeopardy, causing loss of time and money.

 

Lubricants and degreasers

Although not technically a utility supply, to ensure the long life of all the aforementioned equipment, it is essential to use lubricants and degreasers of the highest quality. These products help protect and extend the life of aerial and underground cable pulling equipment.
