The Guard Arm Brace is a light-duty support component used in telecommunications construction to provide stability to crossarms. It mounts to the crossarm with a 3/8-inch diameter bolt and attaches to the pole using a 1/2-inch diameter lag screw. This brace enhances the structural integrity of overhead line systems, ensuring proper spacing and support for insulators, conductores, y otros equipos eléctricos.
Guard Arm Braces, also called Guard Arms, are typically made of hot-dip galvanized steel for durability and corrosion resistance. They come in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different crossarm dimensions and pole types. Guard Arm Braces work in conjunction with other pole line hardware components to create a robust and reliable overhead telecommunications infrastructure.
Features of Guard Arm Braces:
• Provides light-duty support and stability to crossarms
• Made of hot-dip galvanized steel for longevity
• Easy installation with 3/8-inch bolt and 1/2-inch lag screw
• Compatible with various crossarm sizes and pole types
• Enhances overall structural integrity of overhead lines
