3.1.7.4 Metal Utility Pole Mounting
Stainless steel strapping is provided for securing the mounting bracket to a cylindrical object
(such as a metal utility pole) that cannot be pierced with a screw or bolt. A special tool
(Panduit BT1HT) is required to properly secure and tension the strapping. Use the following
procedure to install the mounting bracket on a metal utility pole:
1 Insert the two sections of stainless steel metal strapping (provided with the enclosure)
through the slots in the mounting bracket and place in position for mounting as shown in
Figure 3-6. The end with the V-notch should be at the top.
Note: Two sections of stainless steel metal strapping are provided with the enclosure. If addi-
tional strapping is required, use 5/8 inch wide 304 AISI stainless steel strapping with a
minimum tensile strength of 700 lbs force.
