A Lineman’s Favorite: 25% Easier to Climb vs. Penta-Treated Poles
DuraClimb poles exhibit excellent climbing characteristics, especially when compared to other oil-based treatments like penta. The reason? DuraClimb’s softer exterior pole surface makes it easier for a lineman’s gaffe to penetrate the pole surface.
Odorless and Better for the Environment
Unlike other oil-borne treated poles which can carry a distinct odor, DuraClimb poles are odor-free. Additionally, because DuraClimb poles are manufactured using a unique water and oil emulsion treatment process, the chemical molecules fixate to the wood cells. This lowers the chances of chemical leaching thereby reducing the need for future groundline remedial treatment, since fixation of CCA decreases preservative migration.
Attractive Color Options
Utilizing Koppers patented pigment technology, DuraClimb poles are available in both a clear and brown formulation. The latter produces a pole color look similar in appearance to traditional penta-treated poles.
Easy on the Budget & Easy to Keep in Stock
Manufactured using a water-based chemical, DuraClimb poles are less prone to pricing changes common to oil-based pole treatments. The result; an affordable pole that stays within budget, year after year. And because Koppers manufacturers its own chemical, there’s no worry about potential supply issues impacting pole availability.
Easy to Count on Year After Year
With a track record of proven in-field performance, each DuraClimb pole comes backed by Koppers exclusive 50-year limited product warranty.
