Salisbury Class 2 Insulator Cover/Hood for 1.25" Diameter Line Hose; 55-4 Insulator Class; OJRG

For use with: Insulator class 55-4; Line hose size: 1″ (25.4) Overall Dimensions: 16″ x 6.5″ Price includes dielectric test. All Salisbury insulator covers comply with ASTM D1049 specifications.  The tightest grip in the industry. The self-locking lip prevents line hose from coming off the conductor after an installation is complete. Often, as a lineman is working on an installation and making adjustments, the angle of connection shifts, causing line hose and covers to separate. To prevent this, Salisbury developed a solution for ensuring that any two protective devices would hold together yet still be easy for a lineman to assemble and take apart. RIB-GRIP construction takes advantage of rubber’s natural tendency to grip and tighten its grip through compression. By creating curving rib configurations slit at a specific angle, two pieces easily slip together but resist coming apart. To quickly disengage the lineman needs only to compress the rubber on either side. Class 2 Insulator Covers Insulator covers, in orange, weather resistant Type II SALCOR are used with conventional line hose to cover pin-type insulators. All covers feature RIB-GRIP construction to lock to the underside of the insulators. The large diameter arm overlaps the small arm of the adjoining cover on double arm constructions which provides complete insulation at the joint regardless of the varying distance between pins. Remember to test your rubber insulating products in order to keep your workers safe and to stay in compliance with OSHA.
