Cable handling equipment from GAP Hire Solutions, including cable drum jacks, cable rollers, cable pulling winches and lift/pull machines, helps you lift, support, pay out and install cable safely on site. Cable drum jacks raise a loaded drum off the ground on a load bar so it can turn freely while cable is pulled through ducts, trenches and containment. Our cable drum jacks hire range comes in pairs rated at three, six and 10 tonnes, with a 50mm-diameter load bar and a two-tonne cable drum rotation unit for controlled pay-out. For the pull itself, the range includes a foot-controlled, two-speed cable pulling winch, cable rollers that guide the cable and protect its sheath, and single sheave blocks rated from two to 12 tonnes for redirecting the pulling line. Lift/pull machines rated at 800kg, 1.6 tonnes and 3.2 tonnes, with rope lengths from 10m to 80m and a man-riding option, handle lifting and pulling where a crane is impractical, while 20kN and 30kN pull tension testers let you check anchor points before work starts. As part of the GAP Lifting Services division, every item is backed by a nationwide depot network, so cable roller hire and drum handling kit can reach your site fast. Book your cable drum jack today or contact your local depot to arrange delivery.
