Distribution Ties manufactured of aluminum covered steel secure conductors in the top groove of interchangeable headstyle insulators.  They can accommodate conductor diameters from .190" to 1.585" for F neck insulators and .190" to 1.240" for other size insulators as long as the insulator top groove is large enough.

  • Provide an improved method of securing conductor compared to clamp-top insulators or hand ties over Armor Rods
  • Provides superior abrasion protection for the conductor under all types of motion
  • The tube component surrounds the bare conductor with a resilient cushion
  • Plast Line Ties are also offered as an alternate to metal ties applied over plastic jacketed conductor
