Type #120 Spacers from Glas Mesh

An extremely strong, 120°, non-conductive fiberglass reinforced plastic insulation spacer.

• Used by utilities to prevent and/or correct electrical shorts caused when buried steel mains contact each other or are in close proximity.
• The 120° peripheral circumference minimizes any possible shielding effect on the pipes’ cathodic protection systems.
• For most applications FRP Spacers offer superior physical properties over other plastics and rubber such as PVC and polyethylene.
• The superior compressive strength of FRP over other non-conductive materials is necessary due to the point loading nature of contact shorts.
• FRP spacers will not cold flow, will not become brittle in cold temperatures and will not soften or distort from heat.
