Utilising the same features that have made the Hi-Mod compression fi ttings so popular, this insulator has an internal ball-socket in the main body that threads onto the connecting stud. The nut is insulated from the stainless steel body by a Tufnol™ socket, preventing electrical transference to the insulator body or opposite terminal. Should, for any reason, the Tufnol™ be compromised, the nut will bottom out against the stainless housing. While the backstay will loosen, the insulating studs will remain attached to the insulator bodyallowing the rig to be re-tensioned until a repair can be made. The product codes for rigging insulators are made up by suffixing “RI” with the relevant fittings followed by the wire size, for example, the above diagram would be coded RICC06. All insulators can be swaged using most types of swaging machines. WireTeknik machines require a special pulling tool, see the table below for the correct puller code.

Available with swageless terminals, swage terminals, eye, fork and toggle ends to suit any application.. Wire Size 25mm 25.8mm 258mm 237mm 226mm 271mm 337mm RIP1 The insulator exceeds the rated breaking load of the cable, whilst at the same time providing the necessary electrical properties to enable your backstay to be used as an aerial. All Hi-MOD products are produced to a high degree of quality control, using modern lean manufacturing processes, resulting in a reliable and consistent product version 1
