Product Name: CW-2PRXP Stainless Steel Drop Wire Clamp (with Neoprene Shim)

Overview

The CW-2PRXP is a heavy-duty stainless steel drop wire clamp engineered for the secure termination and support of service drop cables. Designed to provide superior grip and strain relief, this clamp is ideal for both single and dual-pair telephone drop wires as well as fiber optic drop cables at critical attachment points such as span clamps, drive hooks, and building entrances.

Detailed Description

This drop wire clamp features a robust construction comprising three primary components: a stainless steel shell, a high-friction neoprene (EPDM) shim, and a stainless steel wedge with an integral tail wire. The precision-engineered design ensures a reliable and durable connection in demanding outdoor environments.

• Shell & Wedge:​ Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel (including SS201, SS304, and Aluminum options), providing exceptional corrosion resistance and mechanical strength to withstand environmental stressors.

• Tail Wire:​ Constructed from stainless steel with optional galvanized steel​ finishes, offering sufficient rigidity for easy installation while maintaining excellent rust resistance.

• Shim:​ Equipped with a specially formulated Neoprene (EPDM) shim. The serrated design maximizes friction against the cable jacket, significantly increasing holding power and preventing slippage.

• Knot Configuration:​ Available in 2-knot or 3-knot designs to accommodate different cable diameters and required tensile strengths.

Technical Specifications

Key Features & Benefits

• Superior Holding Power:​ The combination of the stainless steel wedge and serrated neoprene shim creates a vice-like grip on the cable jacket.

• Enhanced Corrosion Resistance:​ Multiple material options (SS304, SS201, Aluminum) ensure longevity and stable performance in harsh weather conditions.

• Versatile Application:​ Compatible with a wide range of drop hardware, including drive hooks, span clamps, and bracket attachments.

• Secure Installation:​ The pre-formed tail wire simplifies the tying-off process, ensuring a quick and secure installation.

Application

Primarily used in telecommunications infrastructure to support and terminate service drop wires connecting the main distribution line to the customer’s premises (last mile connectivity). Ideal for deployment at pole line hardware and building entrance locations.
