Allied Bolt, a subsidiary of Power Grid Components (“PGC”), is proud to announce the release of its new Two-Piece Stainless Steel Fiber Drop Clamp, Item #949. This next-generation clamp is engineered to support Corning’s SST™ and ROC™ Fiber Drop Cables, as well as similar fiber cable profiles from other manufacturers.

The #949 Clamp introduces a reimagined design that streamlines field installation while enhancing performance and reliability for telecom and utility crews. “At Allied Bolt, we’re committed to developing hardware solutions that reflect the practical needs of field technicians and deliver meaningful improvements to jobsite efficiency,” said Austin Odum, Product Manager at Allied Bolt. “Building on our legacy of engineering excellence, this new clamp delivers enhanced safety and quicker installation — while maintaining the strength and quality our customers rely on.”

Key benefits of the new #949 Fiber Drop Clamp include:

• Fast installation without having to set the shim while trying to place over the fiber cable.
• Integrated shim/wedge prevents installation without the shim.
• Designed for easy installation while wearing work gloves.
• Clamp can easily be loosened and reinstalled to adjust the slack of fiber cable.
• Elongated bail wire provides extra clearance for making attachments too difficult to reach hooks, clamps, or knobs.

The #949 Clamp securely holds an appropriate length of fiber drop cable while maintaining long-term durability and environmental resistance thanks to its stainless-steel construction.

This release reflects Allied Bolt’s commitment to solving challenges faced by lineworkers and contractors working in demanding field conditions.
