Suspension Clamps: Commonly Available Standard Products
Suspension clamps typically come in a standard design, and we have retained the U-bolt style (commonly known as boat-shaped clamps). These consist of a U-bolt bracket, a clamp body, and pressure plates made from ductile cast iron. Another type is the pre-stranded suspension clamp. Suspension clamps are used to secure conductors to the insulator strings on straight pole towers, or to hang lightning conductors on straight pole towers. They can also be used to support changeover conductors on changeover pole towers and to secure jumper wires on tension angle poles. These clamps are widely used in the domestic market due to their convenient and quick installation. Below are some details: Old-style Boat-shaped Clamp This type of clamp can be used for conductors and lightning conductors. It can withstand the installation load of conductors within vertical spans, and it must not slide or detach from the insulator string during normal operation or in the event of a line break. The...
