Grapnels

ETA design and build grapnels for cable detrenching, recovery, route clearance and ploughability survey (PAS). Designs range from basic types to our wheeled grapnel up to our 3.0 m Tiger grapnel.

The ETA range of Grapnels Include:

DTG

A basic DTG designed primarily for route clearance work and recovery of buried armoured cable in sands and gravels.
Wheeled DTG

A more robust grapnel for the recovery of buried cables, route clearance and ploughability survey for penetrations from 0.6 - 1.5m.
Tiger Grapnel

A grapnel designed to match the burial performance of the new generation ploughs with a penetration of up to 3.0 m.
Cut and Hold

A hydraulic grapnel designed for the recovery from deep water of lightweight (armourless) cable.

ETA are developing a very deep penetration grapnel for recovery of cables from 9m in soft sands and muds. This tool will also have the capability to rebury the cable post repair.

Although specialising in detrenching grapnels ETA can also supply a full range of conventional grapnels.
