Sherman & Reilly LSHR-2 Cable Lasher

Offered here is a used Sherman & Reilly LSHR-2 cable lasher, a strand-mounted machine built for lashing aerial communication and power cables to overhead messenger strand. Sherman & Reilly has long supplied line construction tooling to utility and telecom contractors, and this unit reflects that heritage with a rugged, field-serviceable design. The LSHR-2 travels along the strand using a traction drive while a rotating wire cage dispenses lashing wire in a continuous helical wrap around the cable and strand assembly. This produces the secure, evenly spaced attachment required for long-term aerial cable support. The machine accepts standard galvanized lashing wire spools and includes an adjustable tension mechanism to accommodate different cable diameters and span conditions. This lasher is appropriate for telephone, CATV, and fiber optic aerial construction crews looking for a dependable used machine to supplement or replace aging equipment. It has been mechanically checked for rotor spin, wire feed, and drive engagement, and it is ready for return to active field service after routine inspection by the buyer's crew.
