Traditional double arm construction has been improved with the reliability and longevity of PUPI® Series 5000 crossarms and optimized fiberglass braces.
Using a more traditional style of construction with the added strength of PUPI fiberglass components, double PUPI crossarm H-Frame designs provide unmatched strength for ultimate line hardening.
PUPI offers greater installation speed and flexibility with innovative spacer bracket and mount options available. H-Frame designs can include lightweight fiberglass knee, vee, and X-braces which are stronger and more durable than traditional wood braces.
Deadend assemblies are also available. Contact pupisales@geotekinc.com for more information.
PUPI double sided H-frame systems have been extensively tested and shown to exceed RUS strength requirements for TH-10 V4 construction by 146%.1
Deadend H-Frame Assemblies also available.
