Why a 20KN Twin Conductor Hydraulic Tensioner Is Essential for High-Voltage Line Construction?
In high-voltage transmission line installation, maintaining synchronized tension for double conductors is crucial to avoid twisting and ensure proper sag. The GALAXY GL-2×40 hydraulic tensioner provides 2×20kN pull at max speed, making it an excellent solution for 220kV and 500kV line projects involving twin-bundle conductors.
Use Case
Designed for precise stringing of 630mm²–720mm² twin-bundle conductors, especially in high-voltage installations over long spans, rugged terrain, or high-tension environments.
Benefits
• Ensures synchronized deployment of dual conductors
• Stable performance at high tension levels
• Trusted components: Cummins, Rexroth, WIKA
• Reduces conductor sag, twist, and stress during pull
