Dutch term or phrase: vlieter
Apparently you can pull cables with a "vlieter". I actually don't know the Dutch word, but it is used in the following sentence:

"maximale toegestane trekkracht aan een kabel m.b.v. vlieter in kN"

Can anyone help me with the English word for "vlieter"?

Op deze site worden 'vlieters' ook '(kabel)trekkousen' genoemd: http://www.vdburg.nl/klik2.htm

En in dit document wordt een 'trekkous' in het Engels een 'cable stocking' genoemd:

En hier is te zien dat die 'cable stockings' best lijken op die 'vlieters':
