Tower type saddles are used to support wire tongs, masts, rope blocks or hoists for insulator string displacement on towers.
These saddles are firmly fastened to the brackets of the metallic structure, by four wingnut tightened hooks.
Common Saddles
The RM4742 saddle possesses a bronze clevis attached to its body allowing rope blocks to be fastened, through a pivot connecter.
The (RM4742-1 a RM4742-4), models possess pole clamps of various diameters for a firm and proper attachment to the poles, at any angle
The RT400-1413, is similar to the RM4742 model, differing only on the length of the hooks, designed for lager angle-iron tower legs in larger towers.
Light saddles
Light saddles have the same characteristics as the common ones. Yet are manufactured in aluminum alloy, which makes them practical and easy to instal.
Common saddles may be integrally replaced by light saddles.
