The Double Support Tie is intended for use on aluminum based conductors with diameters from .245" to 1.240".  Each Double Support Tie covers a range of conductor diameters.

  • One design has been engineered to accommodate "C" and "F" insulators while another will accommodate J-neck insulators
  • A separate design is required for “J” neck insulators.
  • Each Double Support Tie is supplied with elastomeric tie tubes designed to minimize abrasion to bare conductor and insulators.

NOTES: 

1 Diameter Range indicates the size of conductors that utilize the same tie. 

2 Nominal Conductor Size indicates one or more of various conductors within each range. 

3 The loop of the Double Side Tie can accommodate either C, F, or J-Neck insulators as indicated in the table. 

4 For the succeeding ranges the insulator's side groove radius should be at least as large as shown above.
