Get a first-hand look at the most effective wire pulling tools, equipment, resources and techniques
Athletes can’t get ready for a game without practicing, and actors don’t perform in front of an audience without rehearsing their lines. How do you expect to use more efficient wire pulling tools and techniques on the jobsite without trying them out first?
When you schedule hands-on training at one of Van Meter’s Wire Innovation Centers in Cottage Grove or Kansas City, you can get personalized instruction on wire and cable solutions in a controlled environment before you apply them on your next project.
Get a glimpse of what you can experience at Van Meter’s Wire Innovation Centers, and check out these six reasons to schedule a visit soon:
1. YOU WILL GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRY WIRE PULLING TOOLS LIKE THESE

2. YOU WILL LEARN TIMESAVING WIRE PULLING TECHNIQUES
Using the best wire pulling tools is a good start, but without the right techniques, you can’t perform at your best. You will get an opportunity to try out some tricks of the trade that help you complete jobs in less time.
These are just a few examples of wire pulling tricks you might not know:

Van Meter recommends preparing upfront with a wire pulling rope kit. To help you prepare for future wire pulls, here is a checklist with everything you need in your pulling rope kit.
3. YOU WILL DISCOVER HOW TO PRE-PLAN WITH WIRE PULLING CALCULATORS
While tools and techniques are valuable, sometimes the biggest time savers happen before you get to the jobsite. You will learn how pre-plan your pulls using Southwire’s wire pulling calculators. You can quickly calculate conduit size, pulling tension, conduit fill, voltage drop and more, so you can plan more efficiently.
4. YOU WILL SAVE ENERGY FOR THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN LIFE
After a long day of pulling wire, how much energy do you have left to enjoy your favorite activities? Saving time is one thing, but conserving energy is just as important for the safety and wellbeing of your crew.
When you learn how to reduce wire pulling time and effort with Southwire solutions, you get better results. Need proof? Knobelsdorff Electric was able to cut their installation time in half using many of the wire pulling tools, pre-planning resources and jobsite services you’ll learn about in training.
