Booths eases cabling strain

In a workplace ever more concerned with OH&S as well as an ever increasing cost of new high-tech cables, previous methods of laying cables such as a Landcruiser cable towing, tractor hauls or even multi person gangs are now unacceptable work practices.

Booths Hire can provide contractors with the latest equipment to enable cable hauling to be performed in the most cost effective and safety conscious manner. The equipment on offer ranges from single or multiple cable rollers to blowers to a range of winches from 500kg capacity to 5000kg including the latest tension limiting winches ensuring that costly cables are not damaged during a haul.

Cable manufacturers are increasingly refusing to warrant high-end cables that have been hauled without the use of tension limiting devices. One damage claim for a cable haul can be several hundreds of thousands of dollars resulting in the closure of a company overnight.

Load-rated cable drum stands can also be provided in capacities from 1000kg to 6000kg catering for various cable drum sizes, once again ensuring that your hauling job remains safe.

Another innovative product offered by Booths is a three-stage electric draw line blower, capable of blowing draw lines along hundreds of metres of ducting, saving countless hours of labour on a hauling job.

Topping off the latest equipment, the company also has numerous trained staff in each branch, able to best advise the capabilities of their equipment, to better allow their customers to achieve the utmost in safety and utilisation of their equipment. Accredited cable hauling and jointing courses can also be organised.
