The wire tong bands are attached to the wire tongs to be used as a straining point by the rope blocks, allowing therefore the articulation of the wire tongs when opening clear from their original position and returning them again to that position.

In order to ensure an effective insulation between the rope block and the energized conductors, the wire tong band must be attached to the pole at a minimum required distance, according to its voltage class or further.
