There can be a difference in grips everyone should be aware  of.  Even from 
the same company not all grips that are 5/16 or any other  size are rated 
the same.  Some made for the power companies are not  designed for longer 
loads like ham radio towers.  I was told this by a rep  from PLP.  Check the 
catalogue and you'll see.

I use  the grips from the power company with 5/16 line on my tower guys.
tri-ex  sm40 with yaesu rotor and LPDA. I use some contrasting tape as
indicators  on the lines, no  slippage.
