When ordering Vise-Top insulators, specify the suffix “P” for covered conductors and bare copper conductors
or “M” for bare aluminum conductors.
Different pin hole diameters and thread configurations to meet international standards are available upon request.
*Meets all requirements of 55-6 except J neck.
**Review design performance data before using on bare wire systems.
***ANSI C29.5 requires a minimum pin height of 7 1/2.
****Cantilever strength refers to side clamp loading.
