Streamlined Spacer Bracket
Simplistic, 2-piece design is intuitive to assemble and has a larger adjustment range than traditional designs. Adjustability range: 8.5-14”
Mount Plate
Poles are not always set straight during installation. The PUPI transmission mount allows for flexibility with your pole interface – when installing double or single arm construction.
Traditional installation of H-Frame structures can be cumbersome; especially when you’re installing 50′ in the air.
PUPI has developed a new spacer bracket and mount plate to allow for a more flexible installation of H-Frame structures.
Fiberglass X-Braces
The PUPI® X-Brace, designed with a pultruded rod, is lighter, stronger, and more durable than wood, reducing weight by up to 70%. Built to provide essential tensile capacity for H-Frame structures, the PUPI X-Brace also features our SunGUARD® UV coating, offering the same 60+ year service life as our crossarms.
