DDIN Tri-Clamp makes Connections Quicker

The Tri-Clamp is a multi-plane clamp that cradles bolts securely following NEMA spacing then clasps itself to the mounting pad of a connecting jumper line.

The DDIN product line is adding the patented Tri-Clamp to its product line. The Tri-Clamp is a multi-plane clamp that cradles bolts securely following NEMA spacing then clasps itself to the mounting pad of a connecting jumper line. 

The resulting bolt stability creates a process efficiency that cuts connecting times by as much as 65%. The included starter socket holds a nut, lock washer, and washer in alignment, simultaneously enabling line workers to safely seat all three onto their corresponding bolt in one motion, thereby eliminating dropped washers and facilitating faster, more systematic connections. 

Collectively, this tool reduces line worker exposure and makes an otherwise hazardous task more practical and drastically safer. Like most of the products offered by DDIN, the Tri-Clamp is made in the USA.

The Tri-Clamp and many more DDIN products are available from Tallman Equipment Co., 870 Supply, American Safety, FarWest Line Specialties, Wagner Smith Equipment and more.

DDIN has been making quality tools used in the electric transmission and distribution industry for over 25 years.
