Leviton Telcom L8681 Silk Grip Cable Mesh Offset Eye

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM L8681 is a silk grip cable mesh strain relief fitting with a 2-wire offset eye configuration and a 0.75-inch eye opening. This type of cable mesh grip is used to support, terminate, or suspend cable runs by gripping the outer jacket of the cable through a woven wire mesh sleeve. The offset eye allows the grip to attach to support hardware at an angle, reducing stress on the cable exit point. Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians, electricians, and telecom cabling crews during structured wiring and cable management work.

This cable mesh grip is suited for use in commercial and residential telecom, data, and low-voltage cable installations where secure cable support and strain relief are required. The 2-wire offset eye design accommodates attachment to messenger wire, support rods, or j-hooks in overhead or vertical cable runs. It is a single-unit item sold individually and is classified as a hardware accessory within the structured cabling and telecom supply category.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or low-voltage telecom technicians following local building codes and TIA/EIA cabling standards. De-energize all circuits in the work area before handling cable assemblies. Slide the mesh grip over the cable jacket and attach the offset eye to the appropriate support structure before tensioning. Do not exceed the rated cable diameter range for this grip to avoid slippage or jacket damage.
