Preformed armor rods are intended to protect against bending, compression, abrasion, arc-over, and to provide repair. The degree of protection needed on a specific line depends upon a number of factors such as line design, temperature, tension, exposure to wind flow, and vibration history on similar construction in the same area.
As a general guide, the following recommendations may be adopted to the specific conditions.
Armor Rods are recommended as minimum protection for clamp-type supports or suspensions.
Line Guards are recommended as minimum protection for hand-tied spans.
The use of supplementary damping devices, such as Spiral Vibration Dampers, should be considered when conductor vibration is present or expected.
Features and Advantages
1.Well tensile properties: The Max tensile strength could be 100% of the conduct's Nominal tensile force.
2.Protect wire from the vibration of wire.
3.Good corrosion resistance: Because the armor rods will use the same material as the conduct so the mechanical function and the corrosion resistance are good.
4.Easy installation: One man don't need any professional tools and could install it easy and fast.
