FIBERLIGN® Aluminum Suspension


The FIBERLIGN Aluminum Suspension (FASN) is designed to gently, but firmly, suspend ADSS cable. It is intended for tangent support installations on lines that have short to medium spans and can be used in low- to high-voltage environments. Structural Reinforcing Rods (SRR) and conductive taped inserts are deployed in high-voltage environments and long span applications, as required for transmission portions of the cable network.


  • Keepers are made from aluminum alloy

  • Hinged keepers are secured together with a captured galvanized steel bolt, washer, and lock nut

  • Inserts are made from a soft, pliable neoprene that gently grips and cushions the cable. Inserts are supplied with grit on the inner bore and conductive tape when they are applied on SRR.

  • Inserts are color-coded to easily identify their cable diameter range

  • Gritted inserts for SRR applications have conductive tape wrapped around them to ensure bonding between the SRR and the housing

  • SRR ends are factory formed to flare away from the cable to prevent damage to the cable during installation, unbalanced loading, or cable motion

  • Can be provided with an optional anchor shackle and 5/8"-11 eye nut for bolted applications on a pole or structure

  • Banding bracket and corona protection options are available separately
