How should EHS cable be attached to hardware?

EHS (Enhanced High Strength) cable should be attached to hardware using dead end grips. This method is essential for ensuring a secure and reliable connection. Dead end grips are designed to distribute the load evenly along the cable and provide a strong anchor point without damaging the cable itself. This is particularly important in applications where tension is applied, such as in supporting trees or other structures.

The use of dead end grips allows for the cable to be easily tensioned and adjusted while maintaining the integrity of the cable. It also minimizes the risk of cable slippage, which can occur with other attachment methods that do not provide a reliable hold. Furthermore, dead end grips are specifically manufactured to match the size and strength of EHS cable, ensuring compatibility and safety in various environmental conditions. Using appropriate hardware that is designed for the specific type of cable ensures that the installation is robust and can withstand external forces, such as wind or the weight of the trees being supported.
