A Cable Suspension bolt
A Cable Suspension Bolt functions as a critical mounting component for securing suspension clamps to utility poles in overhead line installations. They feature a distinctive square head design and come equipped with two pre-assembled square nuts for precise installation. One nut fastens the bolt to the pole while the second nut secures the suspension clamp assembly.
A Cable Suspension Bolt integrates seamlessly with various suspension clamp systems used in telecommunications and power distribution networks. They provide essential mechanical support for overhead conductors and fiber optic cables when used with compatible suspension clamps. The bolts maintain proper spacing between the pole and cable assemblies, helping to minimize conductor movement during adverse weather conditions.
A Cable Suspension Bolt is manufactured to meet rigorous industry standards, featuring a 5/8-inch diameter design with a rated tensile strength of 12,400 pounds. They undergo hot-dip galvanization and comply with industry requirements for durability and performance in outdoor environments.
Features:
• Square head configuration ensures stable installation and prevents rotation
• Hot-dip galvanized coating provides superior corrosion resistance
• Pre-assembled square nuts streamline the installation process
• Meets telecommunications industry compliance standards
• Supports suspension clamps for various cable types including ADSS and ABC cables
