They're called "Kellums Grips". Available from any electrical supplier and
some ham suppliers.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Tower Coax Support Sleeve

Dear Colleagues,

   From the top of my 72' tower I will have some 10 coax lines coursing
downward
from antennas.  I remember a discussion about a type of coax sleeve or
holder
that works on the Chinese-Finger design.  The sleeve is supported in the top
coax extension arm and the weight of the coax holds and suspends it in
position
without overly compressing the cable.  I even recall that someone said it
was
available in a stainless steel mesh from McMaster-Carr??

   Well, I've done all types of searches and cannot seem to find reference
to
the information.  Can someone help this old guy out here?

73,
