Description

Semi-circular tapering conical high tensile steel wedges (4 No) (collets). They hold individual cable strands (see 2015/001.1) in position through steel anchor plates (see 2017/015) at the correct tension at either end of the strand. The tension of the strand can be adjusted by relocating the wedges by the use of a winch to release and relocate the wedges to increase or reduce the tension.
