  • Rods are sub-setted into groups for ease of application
  • Rods are made of high strength, high conductivity, aluminum alloy
  • Center section is “cabled” tightly to pass over a splice or around a dead-end/terminal assembly
  • Conductive grit on inner surface of rods assure electrical contact with cleaned conductor surface.
  • Thermal Rating (Continuous) - 125°C ACSR, AAC, AAAC and 250°C ACSS, ACCR
  • Installs by hand or with hot sticks
  • Lightweight
  • Installs directly over compression splices or compression dead-ends
  • Restores conductivity to all-aluminum, aluminum alloy and ACSR conductors
