Answer:
The IN20817 is constructed with a foam-filled vinyl ester resin FRP tube reinforced with cross-dimensional yarn and a textured grip. It features an electrolytic grade copper hook, a flexible TPE-coated copper grounding lead, and a 600 V heavy-duty jaw clamp.
The Honeywell IN20817 incorporates specialized industrial-grade materials designed for mechanical stability and electrical insulation:
- Vinylester Resin FRP Tube: Provides superior mechanical strength and electrical insulation properties compared to standard polyester fiberglass sticks.
- Cross-Dimensional Yarn Reinforcement: Enhances the structural rigidity and torsional resistance of the 6-foot stick during field manipulation.
- Closed-Cell Foam Core: Foam-filled interior prevents internal moisture ingress and dielectric tracking along the inside of the tube.
- Textured Finish: Non-slip exterior finish ensures positive grip and operator control while wearing high-voltage insulating gloves.
- Electrolytic Copper Hook: Highly conductive copper hook ensures rapid contact discharge without pitting or premature oxidation.
- TPE-Coated Copper Cable: Thermoplastic elastomer jacket provides abrasion resistance, oil resistance, and low-temperature flexibility up to 1100 V.
