Steel armour rods

Sunday, 12 February, 2006 | Supplied by: http://www.dulhunty.com/


Steel armour rods are manufactured using high-strength galvanized steel wire. Steel armour rods may be used in all environments for which galvanized steel conductors or guy wires are used.

Armour rods are designed to help prevent damage to conductors caused by bending, by high clamping stresses, by abrasion at support points and damage caused by arcing.

Armour rods are not vibration dampers but help to prevent vibration damage to conductors by increasing the stiffness of the conductor at the support point and by preventing abrasion to the strands of the conductor.

Armour rods can also be used to repair minor damage to the outer strands of the conductor.

Taps may be applied over armour rods, but scratch brushing and greasing of the conductor is recommended if taps are to be applied.
