Large Yellow/Black Tiger Tails®

Our Tiger Tails® or Torapoli Pipe, have become an industry standard and are a common site on overhead power lines throughout Australia and New Zealand. They slide over conductors to primarily provide a visual warning and mechanical protection when construction sites approximate power poles and wires. They can also be used as an insulation barrier during maintenance work by licensed Network Operators only.

These robust units are backed by decades of engineering and development to ensure the highest quality and safety standards.
