 UltraPole® incorporates the long-lasting durability of Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) preservatives with the superior climbability, hardware performance and weathering characteristics of an oil-based treatment.
The unique water repellent additive in UltraPole® is pressure-treated along with the CCA preservative, deep to the heart of the pole. The UltraPole® treatment provides proven performance from a fixed preservative system that protects poles from attack by insects and decay, while the water repellent additive vastly improves the physical properties of the pole.
UltraPole® provides utilities with a reliable, cost effective pole, while enhancing the safety and productivity of line personnel.
UltraPole® improves pole properties:
- Offers superior climbability to CCA treated poles and compares favorably with oil treated poles
- Increases comfort and confidence in independent climbing trials reported by line personnel
- Decreases hardware and fastener corrosion
- Reduces checking, shelling and splitting defects
- Eliminates oily residues on clothing and skin
UltraPole® is cost effective:
- Effective and long lasting
- Offers cost and performance competitive advantages
- Reduces pole replacement and maintenance costs
- Eliminates pole rotation during storage
UltraPole® reduces environmental issues:
- CCA preservative is chemically bonded to the wood
- The combined performance of the CCA and water repellent additive in UltraPole® minimizes preservative migration both in storage and in service
