The Coated Top Tie is intended for use with plastic jacketed conductors and tie top ANSI C29-compliant insulators only. They are suitable for use with any plastic jacketed conductor such as tree wire or spacer cable. The Coated Top Tie is designed to permit controlled and limited movement of unbroken conductor and, under certain conditions, return the conductor to its originally installed position. The ability of the tie to give and return under differential loading conditions is called "resiliency" and is designed into each Coated Top Tie. Coated Ties incorporate a semi-conductive plastic coating, selected for its superior electrical tracking resistance properties, covering a formed steel wire.

  • Semi-conductive plastic coating with superior electrical tracking-resistant properties covers the formed steel wire

  • Can normally accommodate line angles up to 10 degrees. Larger angles may be accommodated when the insulator is mounted at varying degrees of cant from the vertical

  • To ensure proper fit and performance, it is recommended that only ANSI C29.5-compliant insulators having nominal neck diameters corresponding to 2-1/4" C-Neck or 2-7/8" F-Neck be used.

  • Ideal for use with Tree Wire construction
