The diam. 51 mm (2") Ritzglas® adjustable strain pole is provided with 6 stainless steel cross-pins (5 working cross-pins and 1 locking cross-pin), located at 152 mm (0.5 ft) intervals, to support the adjustable pole clamp on the hot-end.

The 5 crosspins arrangement enables the lineman to displace the yokes to a maximum length of 608 mm (2 ft).

The hot end yokes for suspension and deadened insulator strings are attached to strain poles by adjustable pole clamps. The adjustable pole clamps can be adjusted manually, or with a hot stick and can be used directly on the strain pole to lift conductors, not requiring yokes.

On the cold end, a special 305 mm (1 ft) long high-strength steel strainjack provides uniform traction of the set, using ratchet wrenches and trunnions.

Customized length strain jacks and adjustable pole clamps can be ordered as separate items or spare parts.

Ratchet wrenches and trunnions can also be ordered as separate items.

This tool is key to many high voltage (HV) and extra-high voltage (EHV) transmission maintenance works. Adjustable strain poles can be used with an adjustable pole clamp (RE401-0138) or an adjustable hook assembly (RM4724-1).
