Tap Bracket
The Tap Bracket is a versatile mounting solution used primarily for securing taps and other electronic devices to overhead strands. There are main two types: standard tap Brackets and adjustable tap brackets, they are essential in telecommunications and electrical distribution systems. The Tap Bracket is designed to accommodate a range of strand sizes, typically from 1/4″ to 3/8″, and allows for the mounting of equipment at a distance of 2″ from the strand. This feature is critical for ensuring proper spacing and alignment of electrical components, enhancing both functionality and safety.
Constructed from durable materials such as aluminum and galvanized steel, the Tap Bracket is engineered for longevity and reliability in various environmental conditions. It is compatible with a variety of insulators and can be used in conjunction with products like the insulator plate, making it an integral part of many aerial cable systems. The Tap Bracket’s design allows for easy installation using standard mounting hardware, ensuring that it can be quickly deployed in both new installations and maintenance applications.
