The patented INSULIGN Vise Top and Pivot Vise Top Polymer Insulator utilizes a unique plastic clamp mechanism and nylon torque bolts to secure the conductor. The nylon torque bolt with a break-away ring is designed to ensure that the optimal holding force is applied while providing for a fast conductor clamping. Nylon inserts are offered for use with jacketed conductors. PLP also offers a patented universal insert design which is compatible with all conductors. It is recommended that the utility determine the suitability of the Vise Top/Pivot Vise Top Polymer Insulators for their application before installation. The Pivot Top version eliminates the need to remove the top bolt when seating the conductor in the clamp mechanism.
