YaleGrips are made from a Technora® Aramid fiber flat braid and are assembled in a 4-leg configuration extending from a reinforcing, securing eye. The eye is covered entirely with an extra layer of braid, which is saturated with Maxijacket urethane, an abrasion-resistant coating for extended life.

YaleGrips are used as pulling and stopping grips for electrical-line construction work above and below ground, for deployment and retrieval of a variety of cables, as marine stoppers on hawsers and for temporary or permanent strain relief. They are applied quickly over a wide range of cable diameters without specialised tools. They are noncorrosive, have good dielectric properties and are compact and lightweight. Installed, the grip remains flexible and does less damage to mating surfaces than other types of grips.
