Silicone Stinger Covers

The Salisbury Stinger Covers SC and SCS series are extruded in EPDM or Silicone Rubber and designed for field installation over bare conductors. The covers provide electrical insulation and protection for phase to phase and phase to ground flashover that is caused by wildlife contact. Accepted by (RURAL Utility Services) RUS.

Silicone Stinger Covers are suitable for applications up to20kV Phase to Ground. The new cover design offers improved electrical insulation for phase to phase and phase to ground protection. The covers are extruded with a tapered profile specifically designed to overlap onto itself and over the conductor further improving the dielectric propertiesand conductor protection. The new stinger covers are manufactured using silicone rubber which has excellent high and low temperature properties. They are designed to resist the test of time, sun and weather while keeping assets protected.

The stinger cover can be installed without disconnecting the lead wire from the bushing. Stinger covers are available in six diameters and are easily cut down to the length needed in the field.
