Original
Manufactured to the original, patented ‘Centre-Pull’ design.
Functions
Scorpion Centre Pull separates the cable and hose throughout the length of the handler, offering control, support and protection of water and electrical services.
Stability
Scorpion Centre-Pull is towed by the central spine, creating a level and balanced entry into the cable trough, reducing twist, wear and delays. The cable is usually loaded on the face side.
Retention
Variations of nibbed and plain links are available. Every link can be ‘fully nibbed’ where adverse conditions exist and small cable diameters allow uncontrolled release. Every other link can be ‘alternate nibbed’ which is harder wearing, lower cost and dis-applied where cable retention is not compromised. Various combinations of nibbed and plain links can be specified to facilitate easy cable removal. Six 1.6m lengths of fully nibbed Scorpion should be installed at both the shearer and the mid-point in the case of Longwall.
Easy Access
Cable and Hose are contained separately, allowing removal of one without disturbing the other.
Minimum Width
Scorpion Centre-Pull is the narrowest of its type in use today, affording minimal tip to face distance.
