Can I use this for very thin or very thick cables?

Troubleshooting
Super Grip does not hold the cable securely.
Ensure the correct grip size for the cable diameter is selected. Verify that the grip mechanism is fully engaged and tightened correctly according to its design. Check the cable for any damage that might prevent a secure fit.
Difficulty attaching the Super Grip to the pulling rod.
Confirm that the attachment point on the pulling rod is clear of debris. Ensure the Super Grip's connection point is also clear. Check for any bending or damage to either component.
Cable slips during pulling.
Re-evaluate cable diameter and grip selection. Ensure the cable is clean and free of lubricants that could reduce friction. Consider if the pulling tension exceeds the grip's rated capacity.
