Ideal Clear Glide™
Wire Pulling Lubricant
For Data/Communications Cable
A clear, colorless lubricant for quick clean-up. Designed for very fast pulls
that is safe to use with all cable types especially datacom cable. This lube
remains stable -1°C to 82°C and dries to a semi-fluid film that won’t clog
conduit. Because it clings to the cable, it continues to work throughout
long pulls. Apply by hand, brush, or pump. Non-toxic, non-flammable,
and non-corrosive

Fiber Optics
Ordering Information
To choose a fiber optic cable, you need to know the following:
1. What type and grade of fiber is required?
The system designer will have identified the fiber that is required for the
network. Find the fiber type that is needed from the Fiber Specification and
Selection Guide shown below.
Use the two-letter Fiber Type code to identify the fiber. This code inserts
into the Summit Number, replacing the ** notation.
2. How many fibers are required?
The system designer will also have identified the number of fibers that will be
in each cable. Fibers are usually cabled in groups of 6 or 12.
3. What cable construction is needed?
The cable construction that is needed is based on a variety of factors.
We have a full range of products for premises, outside plant and indoor/
outdoor to solve nearly every application need. Using the catalog as a guide,
identify the cable type and construction that is needed.
4. How do I specify the cable?
With the cable construction decided, move down the table on the catalog
page to find the number of fibers required. The first column of that row is the
Summit Number. Simply replace the ** in the Summit Number shown with
the Fiber Type code found in step 1. The part number is complete.

The Roxtec Sealing System
Roxtec sealing solutions for cables and pipes ensure safety,
efficiency and long-term operational reliability in many different industries.
Multidiameter™ by Roxtec
Our invention for adaptability, Multidiameter™, is a solution based on rubber
modules with removable layers. It allows for a perfect sealing, regardless of the
outside dimension of the cable or pipe.
This simplifies design, speeds up installation and reduces the need
for stock, material and logistics. It also provides built-in spare
capacity for future upgrades.
Certified safety seals
Our seals protect people and investments against risks caused by, for example,
fire, gas, water, dust, pests, blast load, and electro-magnetic interference. The
system is tested and approved by all major classification societies and used in
a wide range of applications.
Two main product groups
There are two main groups of Roxtec products to choose from.
The type of application and requirements of protection determine
which product to choose. Both groups, RM and CM, are available also in the
EMC application area, as well as in the EX application area.

Designed for very fast pulls. Safe to use with
all cable types, especially datacom cable.
This lube remains stable from -1°C to 82°C,
and dries to a semi-fluid film that won’t

thin, non-conductive film that won’t clog
conduit and clings to cable throughout long
pulls. Apply by hand or pump. Yellow 77’s
special homogeneous blend formulation
needs no mixing and won’t dry out because
a surface coat forms to reduce evaporation.
Environmentally safe, non-toxic, non-flammable
and non-corrosive

Wire and Cable Reel Handling
Rolling
Correct
• Always make sure the cable ends are are secure before moving.
An unsecured cable end can cause damage and personal injury.
• If reeels are moved by rolling, examine the route and clear the path of
any debris such as rocks, wooden blocks, pipes or other equipment.
•
Roll reels in the same direction it was turned when the cable was wound
onto the reel.Rolling in this direction tends to tighten then layers of
cable on the reel. Rolling in the incorrected direction may cause
loosening or loops, resulting in tangles or overlapping and cause difficulty
during installation.
Incorrect
• Do not let the flanges straddle items that may damage the cable
In some facilities it may be necessary to roll reels of cable up or down an
inclined ramp. Assure the ramp has adequate load bearing capabilities and is
wide enough to accommodate the width of the reel flanges with an adequate
margin of safety. Be aware when a heavy reel is rolled down even a slight
incline, the momentum may make it difficult to stop. Select a method for
controlling and stopping the reel safely and one that does not allow the cable
or protective covering to contact any potential damaging objects or exert
sufficient force on the reel flanges to cause damage.
Fork Lift
Correct
Incorrect
When using a forklift to move reels, only lift from the sides and only if the
forks are of sufficient length to securely capture both flanges.
Never lift with the forks between the reel flanges or let the forks contact the
cable or the protective covering. If the reel is on its side and it is absolutely
necessary to lift in this position, place the forks underneath the bottom
flange. An alternative method is to use a suitable holding device inserted in
the arbor hole of the top flange. Care must be exercised when lifting by this
method. Undue stress could result in failure of the rods holding the flanges
together.
Overhead Devices
When lifting by crane or other overhead lifting device, insert steel lifting
bars of a suitable diameter and length through the arbor hole in thecenter of
the flange. The use of a lifting yoke or spreader bar is required to prevent the
lifting chain or cable from applying pressure to the reel flanges. Side pressure
can crush the reel flanges resulting in damage to the cable. Also, the use of a
yoke or spreader bar can prevent tipping or slipping, especially with heavy
reels or reels that may be unbalanced.

Wire and Cable Reel Handling
Reel-to-Reel Rewinding
Cable may be unwound from the bottom or top of the reel; however, if cable
is to be re-reeled from one reel to another, position the reels to allow the
cable to follow the natural cast in the cable. The reels should be supported on
jacks or stands with a suitable bar through the arbor holes, which will allow
the reels to be easily turned. A minimum of twenty (20) feet between the reel
flanges is recommended. This will allow the cable to straighten before it is
wound on the take up reel. Reverse bending and twisting can cause difficulty
and possible internal damage, which can affect the performance of the cable.
Correct
20 feet
Incorrect
Removing Cable from the Reel
Correct
Incorrect
Never pull the cable over the reel flange or the side of a coil. This can
produce undesirable kinks and twists in the cable.
The maximum tension should not exceed .008 times of the circular mil
area when pulled with a pulling eye attached to the copper conductor. The
maximum pulling tension on a cable can be calculated with this formula:
Tm= .008 X N X CM
Where: Tm = max pulling tension (lbs.) N = number of conductors being
pulled CM = circular mil area of each conductor
Training and Bending Limitations
Training is the positioning of cable when it is not under tension. Bending
is the positioning of cable when it is under tension. When installing cable,
the object is to limit the mechanical forces so that the cable’s physical and
electrical characteristics are maintained for the expected service life. Bends
in conductors, multi-conductor cables or assemblies of conductors are made
so that the cable will not be damaged. A non-shielded cable can tolerate a
sharper bend than a shielded cable. This is especially true for cables having
Voltage
600
helically applied metallic shielding tapes which, when bent too sharply, can
separate or buckle and cut into the insulation. Remember that offsets are
bends. The problem is compounded by the fact that most tapes are under
jackets that conceal such damage. The extruded polymers used for insulation
shields have sufficient conductivity and coverage initially to pass acceptance
testing, then fail prematurely due to corona at the shield/insulation interface.

Since UniShield® is a unique construction, there are no applicable values for the bending radius in the NEC®. However, General Cable recommends 8 times for
single conductors, and for multiplexed or multi-conductor cables, it is 8 times the diameter of the individual conductors or 5 times the overall diameter, whichever is
greater, in accordance with ANSI/ICEA S-93-639 5-46kV Shielded Power Cable for Use in the Transmission and Distribution of Electric Energy.

Cable Feed-In Setups
The following diagrams ilustrate various cable feed-in setups:

Guide in tube
Setup for Duct Close to Floor
Single sheaves should only be used for guiding cables. Arrange multiple
blocks to maintain bending radii whenever cable changes direction or
elevation (Figure 3).
For pulling around bends, use conveyor sheave assemblies of the appropriate
radius series (Figure 4).
Pulleys must be positioned to ensure that the effective curvature is smooth
and changes direction or elevation evenly at each pulley. Never allow a
polygon curvature to occur (Figure 5).
The fit of a pulley around the cable is also important when pulling heavy
weights (i.e. pulleys at the top of a vertical drop).
The feed-in setup should unreel the cable with a natural curvature (Figure 1)
as opposed to a reverse “S” curvature (Figure 2).

Remember to use the radius of the surface over which the cable is bent, not
the outside flange diameter of the pulley. A “10 inch” cable sheave typically
has a 10 inch outside flange diameter with a 6 inch inside diameter that
provides an inside (bending) radius of 3 inches.
