TIRVIT Wire Rope Tensioner
For pulling and tensioning applications. Tensions wire rope to span between posts and finish with clips. TIRVIT® attaches at any point onto the wire rope. The lever action is similar to that of a TIRFOR® hoist plus you can take it off the rope without having the entire rope length fed through it. This is a neat little gizmo – most riggers don’t even know it exists. Stops the hassle of getting a rope tight between posts.
