Stainless steel pole belt

What is stainless steel wire?

Stainless steel band is a kind of fastening band made of stainless steel or stainless steel, and its planar structure forms a coil form. During use, the stainless steel strip coil is cut into sections that match the circumference of the object to be fixed on the electric column. The stainless steel strip sections are combined with the stainless steel strip lock to fix the equipment on the electric column. Due to the particularity of the installation work, stainless steel pole strips need to have anti-corrosion capabilities and be able to withstand the physical and chemical effects of weather. Therefore, the inox utility pole belt can secure the equipment on the utility pole for decades and keep it safe without replacement, thus saving costs.

What are the uses of stainless steel strips?

Under normal circumstances, power companies and telecommunications companies will allow the installation of electrical cabinets, optical cable equipment or mailboxes on utility poles without drilling holes to protect the structure of the utility poles. Stainless steel pole belts are widely used due to their flexible installation methods and can be fixed on poles without drilling. Not only that, stainless steel pole belts are also used to fix safety cameras, navigation signs or pole warnings at key positions. Continue to study the following typical applications of stainless steel wire:
Put the electrical box and the electrical cabinet on the utility pole
Due to the considerable weight of the electrical cabinet, the electrical columns that need to be installed with stainless steel strips must have a large load-bearing capacity, with a width of at least 20 millimeters and a corresponding thickness of 0.7 millimeters or more. Some large electrical cabinets require stainless steel pole strips that are 30 millimeters or 35 millimeters wide, with a thickness of at least 1 millimeter. In order to install the electrical cabinet on the utility pole, it is necessary to install appropriate stainless steel straps for locking to keep it fixed during the fastening process. By this method, installers do not have to drill screws on the utility poles to ensure their safety. The utility pole is made of stainless steel and is very durable, so it can remain a fixed electrical cabinet for many years when it needs to be replaced. Especially during the process of replacing or repairing stainless steel strips, the electric pole can be easily disassembled without affecting the electric pole and the electrical cabinet.
Install telecommunication equipment, optical cable boxes or cameras on utility poles
In addition to electrical cabinets, stainless steel utility poles are also used to install telecommunication equipment, optical cable boxes and surveillance cameras on them. In this installation case, stainless steel column straps can meet various shapes and sizes from circular columns to hexagonal columns through the plasticity and malleability of stainless steel materials. Most importantly, the accessories of the inox belt lock will determine whether the belt is fixed to the utility pole and whether it can secure the device outdoors. For these installation applications, its load-bearing capacity is relatively light and it is suitable for stainless steel pole strips with a width of 13 to 16 millimeters and a thickness of 0.5 to 0.8 millimeters.

During the installation of power poles, some lines use two parallel power poles to increase the load. In this case, stainless steel utility pole strips are used to connect two utility poles together, ensuring that they do not tilt or tip over and lose balance, thereby reducing the load. Based on the position and function of each column, determine the number of stainless steel strips that need to be tightened. For instance, new columns and corner columns usually bear greater loads, so 3 to 4 stainless steel strips should be installed, while straight columns only require 2 to 3 stainless steel strips, which is appropriate. Stainless steel pole belts should be selected with widths of 20mm, 25mm, 30mm or 35mm and thicknesses ranging from 0.8mm to 1mm.
Tie the wire pipe to the utility pole
In some cases, the equipment installed on the utility poles needs to be connected to cables to achieve the functions of controlling, transmitting and distributing electricity. Wires should not be placed outdoors to avoid the influence of environmental factors such as temperature, humidity and pests. Instead, they should be placed in safe and protective pipes. During the installation process, use stainless steel strips to fix the pipes to the utility poles to firmly secure the cables and reduce damage, especially for loose joints that require a lot of effort and cost to repair.
Hang live warning signs and direction signs on the utility poles
Stainless steel strips for utility poles are also used to fix warning signs and direction signs on the road. Using stainless steel straps for fixation helps save costs and can be easily removed when you want to change or edit the logo. Especially the stainless steel strips, which can be firmly tightened to ensure the safety of pedestrians and at the same time enhance the aesthetic appeal of the utility poles. Under normal circumstances, the fixation of electric billboards requires the use of 2 to 3 stainless steel band clips to ensure the long-term stability of the billboards. The widths of stainless steel strips used for hanging signs and direction signs range from 13mm, 15mm to 20mm.
What types of stainless steel strips are commonly used for utility poles nowadays?

At present, various types of stainless steel rods and strips are available on the market. Generally, depending on the installation requirements, different types of stainless steel strips with different qualities and prices are selected, such as 316 stainless steel strips, 430 stainless steel strips, and 201 stainless steel strips. Among them, 304 stainless steel strips remain the most popular. 304 stainless steel strips have excellent corrosion resistance and can be used in frequently humid environments. The 430 stainless steel strip, on the other hand, is more economical and suitable for outdoor use in natural conditions with lower corrosive factors. To select the appropriate stainless steel strip for utility poles, you can learn about the following types of stainless steel strips in detail:

Stainless steel utility pole belt is a kind of stainless steel belt, which has the advantages of being very strong, safe and flexible. It features a multi-functional design and is easy to use or transport. However, it is necessary to choose high-quality stainless steel utility pole belts, which have strong load-bearing capacity and can withstand harsh weather conditions, so that they can be used for many years. In addition, stainless steel utility pole cable ties also need to be packed compactly and conveniently to facilitate use and carrying. The following are the standards for choosing stainless steel strips suitable for utility poles.

The size of the stainless steel strip for the utility pole should be suitable for its load-bearing capacity.
Stainless steel strips for utility poles are often used in areas frequently subject to friction and for fixing equipment with considerable weight. Therefore, the primary selection criterion is high load-bearing capacity. Therefore, it is necessary to choose stainless steel strips made of high-quality stainless steel, which have excellent hardness and scratch resistance. But the most important thing to pay attention to is the thickness and width of the stainless steel strip of the utility pole. The greater the thickness and width, the greater the fastening force. For light installation applications, only belts with a width of 13 millimeters or 15 millimeters and a thickness of 0.4 millimeters to 0.5 millimeters are required. For the installation of heavy-duty electrical cabinets, 20mm or 25mm stainless steel utility pole strips with a thickness of 0.7mm to 1mm must be used to ensure a safe load-bearing capacity.
Select the stainless steel strip material suitable for the installation environment of the utility pole
Stainless steel strips for utility poles are often exposed to outdoor high-temperature and high-humidity environments and need to have good durability to be used for a long time. When making a choice, customers should give priority to belts with high chromium and nickel content, which have corrosion resistance, will not rust when exposed to water or other chemicals in the environment, and are less affected by high temperatures. Under normal circumstances, the materials of stainless steel utility pole belts are 304, 316 or 430. For instance, in natural environments, only 430 stainless steel strips are needed. However, for coastal environments or areas with strong corrosive chemicals, 304 or 316 stainless steel strips should be used to ensure good resistance.
Pay attention to the form and packaging to facilitate use and carrying
One selection criterion that customers need to keep in mind when choosing stainless steel utility pole belts is ease of use and portability. The details of the stainless steel band must ensure that it does not fold, has uniform dimensions, and is carefully processed to easily pass through the buckle and tighten, ensuring the safety of the electrician. In addition, during the construction process, a large amount of stainless steel strapping is needed, and the working environment is all at high altitudes. Therefore, customers also need to pay attention to the neat packaging specifications, appropriate weight, convenient transportation, faster operation, and ensure the safety of the installers.
