SAFETY FIRST WITH COMPOSITE FERRULE POLES. Non-conductive composite ferrules enhance dielectric strength from top-to-bottom, improving user safety while performing tree trimming and line-clearance around overhead utility lines.
Jameson built the first fibreglass poles in 1956 in response to customer needs for a stronger pole. Today, Jameson is the leading supplier of fibreglass poles.
The development of Jameson’s NEW fibreglass COMPOSITLOCK™ Poles with fiber reinforced composite ferrule was in response to safety concerns from our customers. According to the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA) in the U.S.A, “Electricity is a serious and widespread hazard to arborists. In fact, electricity causes about 15% of all fatalities in the tree care industry, making it the leading cause of worker fatalities.” A ten-year study (2006-2016) conducted by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (U.S.A.) found “while overall recordable injuries were down by approximately 50 percent in that time-frame, the number of serious incidents did not decline and rose significantly as a percentage of all events.”
Jameson COMPOSITLOCK™ Poles maintain insulating properties across pole sections for line-clearance tree work PLUS offer more secure pole connection for telecommunication, line clearance, arborist and landscape professionals.
Non-conductive composite ferrules enhance dielectric strength from top-to-bottom, improving user safety while performing tree trimming and line-clearance around overhead utility lines.
