Epoxiglas® Pole, 2-1/2 in X 12 ft

POLE, 2 1/2 in X 12 ft Epoxiglas®,Epoxiglas® blank poles are available for field repairs in a number of sizes. Extreme caution must be taken in tool reassembly, following detailed instructions available from the A. B. Co. Contact your territory manager for details. Failure to properly attach metal ferrules and splices to these poles or to use proper materials for rivets, internal plugs, adhesives or procedures may result in premature or below rating breakage. Epoxiglas® poles were specifically designed by engineers for use in hot line tool applications. Materials used in Epoxiglas® poles are glass fibers, epoxy resin, and unicellular plastic foam. In the finished form, the unicellular plastic foam acts as a core, over which specially treated glass fibers are placed circumferentially and longitudinally after being coated with a specially formulated epoxy resin and ovencured. Because Epoxiglas® Poles are moisture-absorption resistant, heated trailers and drying room are not required. Only the reasonable care normally afforded hot line tools is necessary to maintain sound insulation level. The color selection for Epoxiglas® was Omaha orange . . .because of its easy detectability and general contrast with common environment in usage areas. The color is actually present throughout the material — not just a surface finish.
