This all-inclusive design eliminates the need to purchase a trunnion clamp separately, as all clamp parts are captive.

Water Tight

Water Tight

Our PST seal uses Crimp Under Pressure technology to attach the end fitting onto the line post while creating a water-tight seal and significantly extends service life.

Extended Life

Extended Life

Specially formulated silicone housing material maximizes hydrophobicity and eliminates maintenance needs such as pressure washing while helping to extend insulator service life.

The user-friendly design allows a variety of installation orientations. 

Performance Under Pressure

Our PST (Primary, Secondary, Tertiary) seal is a triple layer sealing process with the benefit of a long service life. By crimping the end fitting onto the line post with a water-tight seal, this process guards against any possible moisture ingress.

This means that even if the external tertiary seal is compromised, the sheath generates a compressed mechanical seal with the fitting to provide an extra layer of protection. Our PST seal system sets MPS apart, as many other designs in the market rely solely on a single external barrier to protect the insulator core.
