reat products for the great outdoors.
Wildlife Outage Protectors are designed for years of effective service in all weather conditions, providing:
- UV protection
- High insulation factors
- Flame retardant properties
- Extreme temperature resistance
They are molded from Arbosol®, a proprietary polyvinyl chloride (PVC) material that produces a seamless, heavy duty, resilient molded product. It is formulated specifically for electrical applications at high voltages.
