PVC TOP TIES/SIDE TIES/ARMOUR RODS/ GUY GRIP/OPGW & ADSS Hardware Fittings

Function Side ties are designed for securing conductors in the side groove of insulators. Both vertically or horizontally mounted. They eliminate fatigue and wear problems on conductors. Its design takes into account a tie pad to protect the bare conductor from abrasion at the conductor-insulator Interface. Tie pads are not required with jacketed conductors.This product is manufactured with aluminum covered steel for ACSR and homogeneous conductors with copper covered steel for copper conductors and galvanized steel for direct application on insulated conductor Mechanical strength Side ties have a slip load superior to 3.5kN in unbalanced load conditions. This strength is usually sufficient to contain a broken conductor to a single span. Note The lay direction of side ties must be the same as the that the outer stranding of the conductor to which it is applied. Side ties - For galvanized steel cables
