Safety and Security

Safety and Security Precautions

In applications that offer safety and security, qualities such as visibility and durability are required to ensure the protection of workers, machinery and possessions. Safety is a key component to all industries, meaning safety products have to be reliable and made with strict manufacturing standards.  

Below are our product lines that cater to the industry, and some of the applications of our products in the safety and security industry.   

Product Lines

Custom cable assemblies crafted with precision and expertise. Our aircraft, military, and commercial cable assemblies are all highly customizable, and are durable enough to withstand demanding applications.   

Designed with exceptional versatility for various recreational and commercial applications. KobraKoils® are known for their rebound memory, quickly returning to their original shape after being stretched. Can be customized in color and length and are available in jacketed and bare cable configurations  

Lashing wire alloys are used in the fabrication of pole line hardware. It is designed to withstand tension and provide long-lasting support for cables. Available in standard diameters; 0.038”, 0.045”, 0.062” and 0.065”. 

Safety light reflective wire rope that provides a visual barrier for outlining hazards in any application. Reflexlite® has a 1/8” wide strip of reflective material creating a series of silver-white dashes visible from several hundred feet away. 

Ensuring safety is a major priority in various industries and applications. Accident prevention is the main priority, whether that be with lights, locks, lashing cables or emergency shutoff devices.

Let’s look at some of our products’ applications in the safety and security industry.  

Product Applications

Telephone pole

Telephone Lash Wire

Keeping phone and electrical service running through wires is crucial to keeping people connected and productive. It is just as important to keep telephone wires secure to avoid putting drivers or pedestrians in danger around them. CWI lashing wire achieves both. Our durable, sturdy lashing wire ensures fastening despite environmental obstacles, keeping people safe and limiting maintenance requirements to telephone poles and lines.

Road Hazards

Road construction, accidents and barricades can all be dangerous hazards on the road if they are not visible. Especially for night driving, drivers must be alerted of these hazards well in advance. Our Reflexlite® reflective cable creates silver-white dashes that are visible from several hundred feet away, keeping roads safer when hazards are present.

Lock Cables

Our cable assemblies can be used for a variety of safety lock applications. Bikes, scooters and other items/vehicles that may be theft risks can be effectively locked and secured by our durable cable assemblies. These cables don’t wear down over time and are durable enough to give peace of mind as lock mechanisms. Another example of a lock use is as a computer security lock cable, securing a laptop to a desk if that laptop is a potential theft risk.

Lock Out / Tag Out

Lock out tag out (LOTO) cables are a safety mechanism that can be used in any sort of machinery. This cable is used alongside lockout devices to physically lock or block energy sources (electrical switches, valves, etc.) in an off or neutral position while equipment maintenance occurs. This mechanism ensures safe maintenance can occur, with no risk of electrocution, explosion, or other electrical risks.

Emergency Shutoff

One big risk in many industries is machinery malfunction. Many machines used in construction, mining, etc. are dangerous enough to cause serious damage if misused or malfunctioning. If there are hazardous conditions or a machinery malfunction, these bright coated cables can be pulled to initiate an emergency shutoff of material to avoid a potentially disastrous situation.
