Keepingthese transmission lines safely in the airis the single most critical requirement ofany connector and traditional installationmethods simply cannot survive long underthis kind of burden. That’s why DMC Powerdesigned the next generation of Full Tensionconnectors for AAC, ACSR, ACSS and StaticWire applications.Only 4 Swages required on AAC Single Pad DeadendsDMC Power has spent several years testingto all industry standards including ANSIC119.4 Class "AA" current cycling on ourSingle Stage system, establishing us asthe only "High Temperature" Single Stagesystem option.Additional Thermal/Mechanical testing ofour Single Stage "One Die" ACSR fittings atan elevated temperature of 150 C and 25%tension showed that all of our test samplesran an average of 25% cooler than thecontrol conductor temperature, provingDMC Power's superior performance over allother compression systems.DMC Power’s strict manufacturingprocesses and ISO 9001:2008 qualitysystem ensures that each and everyconnector you receive meets and exceedsall utility and industry standards. Trust thesuperior quality and proven reliability ofthe DMC Power Swage System on yournext Transmission project.40360 compression with just the push of a buttonFULL 360º COMPRESSIONUnlike other connection systems that usedangerous explosives, inferior connector materialor fixed dies that produce inefficient compression,our Swage System provides 360 compressionaround the outside of the high strength 6000series aluminum alloy fitting to produce:20%40%50%AREA OFREDUCTIONHIGHER IACSRATINGHIGHER THERMALCONDUCTIVITYRATING888-SWAGE-NOW

Theneed for access roads or helicopters to install permanent splices can add 1,000,000 to your projectfor every 100 splices! DMCPower's Swage design allowsfor splices to run OVER theroller during installationwithout impacting spliceperformance -- just Swageyour reels together and startstringing!www.dmcpower.com41
