Materials Used in Lineman's Climbing Equipment:
Klein-Kord
Klein lineman's belt straps, billets, and pocket tabs are made of Klein-Kord.
Klein-Kord is an exceptionally strong, multi-ply filament nylon fabric that is
neoprene-impregnated, folded, and vulcanized.
Klein-Kord is abrasion-resistant, non-conductive, virtually free from stretch, and
flexible for ease of use and durability. It has excellent chemical resistance and is
virtually unaffected by creosote and other pole-treatment chemicals. In addition,
its properties and wear characteristics remain essentially unchanged at temperatures
up to 250F (121C).
Shown above is Klein's six-ply Klein-Kord, which is
1-3/4" (44 mm) wide. The center plies of Klein-Kord are red at the core. When
the red plies appear, remove the product from use and replace it. This "early
warning" feature is yet another safety measure provided by Klein Tools.
Note: The red center plies may become discolored in use. Therefore, visual
inspection for wear before use is mandatory.
Drop-Forged Steel Hardware
Klein D-rings, snap-hooks, and tongue buckles are made of drop-forged steel with a
corrosion-resistant finish. All of this Klein hardware is tested to meet or exceed
applicable standards and OSHA requirements.
Nylon Webbing
Klein uses a high-quality, commercial-grade nylon. The nylon webbing is impregnated
with resin for extra durability and abrasion resistance.
Leather
Rolled-edge, chrome-tanned leather is used for cushioning in all Klein
lineman's.belts. These cushions have sponge-rubber cores for added comfort.
Other components, such as tool loops, are made of latigo leather, hand-laced and
stitched to the belt cushion. Tape thong straps are constructed from long-lasting
leather with a vulcanized fiber cross-piece. On top-of-the-line belts, straps are
covered with harness leather.
Nickel Plating
Klein knife snaps, glove-bag rings, and suspender rings are nickel plated for
durability and corrosion resistance. |
