CUSHION-GRIP suspension clamps with elastomer liners for conductors up to 345 kV

CUSHION-GRIP suspension clamps with elastomer liners for overhead line conductors up to 345 kV, including split EHV phases. The liners protect the conductor from abrasion and fatigue without installing armor rods.

Conductors: all aluminum conductors; T2 version for stranded conductors
Voltage: split EHV phases up to 345 kV (500 kV and above on request)
HT250: continuous operating temperature 250 °C
Construction: built-in elastomer liners, captive attachment, no armor rods
