Pulling eyes are provided with integrated wiring systems suitable for installing conductors or cables. The pulling eyes may include body portions that define interior cavities that are sized to snugly engage outside portions of the conductors or cables. The body portions are sized to be deformably crimped onto the outside portions of the conductors or cables. The pulling eyes may also include head portions joined to the body portions, with the head portions defining apertures for receiving a strength member for installing the conductors or cables. These apertures place the interior cavities in communication with the exteriors of the pulling eyes.

A two-vector centrifuge rotates on a central axis, while each centrifuge drum also rotates on the drum's own axis. The inside of each drum has flighting or threads to direct and force material to the bottom of the drum as the two-vector centrifuge rotates. Perforations in the top part of the drum allow liquids to be expelled from the drum, while dried, solid material is ejected though a gap in the bottom of the drum. A pair of troughs keep the ejected liquid fraction separate from the ejected solid fraction, and each fraction is removed from the centrifuge while the centrifuge is operating, allowing the centrifuge to run for extended periods without needing to be cleaned or have accumulated material removed.

Continuous centrifuge

Systems and methods for facilitating wire and cable installations are provided. According to embodiments, a system comprises a reel and a first parallel including a first conductor loaded onto the reel in a first layer. The system may further comprise a second parallel including a second conductor loaded onto the reel in a second layer. At least a portion of the second layer of the second parallel may be loaded on top of at least a portion of the first layer of the first parallel.

Pulling eyes are provided with an integrated lug for electrically coupling conductors or cables to terminating equipment. The pulling eyes may include body portions that define interior cavities that are sized to snugly engage a bare metal portion of the conductors or cables. The body portions are sized to be deformably crimped onto the bare metal portions of the conductors or cables. The pulling eyes may also include head portions joined to the body portions, with the head portions are assembled to pulling ropes or cables for installing the conductors or cables. The pulling eyes may further include integrated lugs electrically attached or coupled to the body portions and configured to electrically couple the conductor to terminating equipment.

A composition for adhering to human nails includes a mixture of a cyanoacrylate compound and/or graphite fibers. Such composition can take the form of either an artificial nail extender or a nail coating. The composition for forming an artificial nail includes graphite fibers, a cyanoacrylate, and a hardening accelerator containing a mixture of trichlorotrifluoroethane and N,N-dimethyl-P-toluidine. The accelerator is adapted to be sprayed onto a base material containing the graphite fibers and cyanoacrylate in the form of a mist. Nail compositions containing graphite fibers have significantly increased strength yet remain flexible to allow for flexure of the nail. The cyanoacrylate compounds increase the chemical bonding of the compositions to a nail.
