Cross Arm Gin and Transformer Gin Assemblies

Cross Arm Gins are used on cross arms when only one conductor needs to be raised. Use the arm gin to change insulators: apply an armor rod to a conductor: raise a conductor from a lower position to the cross arm, or lower the conductor. The 2-1/2” (6.4 cm) diameter fiberglass pole has two eyes at the top in which to hook the block line and tie back line. The base fits a 4-3/4” x 5-7/8” (12.1 x 14.9 cm) cross arm. Included shims are needed for smaller arms.Features & Benefits:● The Transformer Gin Assembly is made from steel.Can be installed on the pole by one lineman with the single alloy chain. The assembly can also be installed over a cross arm.Blocks can be installed in the eye or from the shackle provided. Rope guides for the fall line are located on both sides of the gin assembly. The gin assembly has a safe working load limit of 2,000 lbs. (907 kgs). The safe working load limit is the total load on the gin assembly including load to be lifted, pull on fall line and friction.● WARNING: Tagging loads will subject gin to side loading that will reduce the WLL.● The Heavy Duty Transformer Gin Assembly designed for easy installation on the pole with a 5/16” high test chain and tightening handle. The gin can also be installed over a cross arm. The assembly has a safe working load limit of 5,000 lbs. (2,268 kgs). The safe working load limit is the total load on the gin assembly including load to be lifted, pull on fall line and friction.● WARNING: Tagging loads will subject gin to side loading that will reduce the WLL.
