BLUE STRIPE® Telescopic Hot Sticks


SMOOTHER SURFACE
Conventional fiberglass construction uses a woven matt. This creates
pockets and voids where dirt and moisture can collect. Our unique
non-woven fiberglass is unidirectional which creates a smoother
surface. The BLUE STRIPE® Fiberglass Hot Sticks have a lineman
friendly grip, stay
cleaner longer,
and are easier to
clean and meet
standards.

EPOXY RESIN
The BLUE STRIPE® Fiberglass Hot Stick line uses Epoxy resin
which is the most water resistant, durable, and longest lasting resin
available and has superior electrical properties. Our sticks have a very
high resistance to failure due to water absorption or delamination.

HIGH PERFORMANCE CLOSED CELL FOAM


Tip sections and foam filled sticks offer an added
measure of safety by preventing water from
entering the inside. Our superior Closed Cell
Foam construction is durable and long lasting;
extending the safety margin.

EASY TIP LOCK REPLACEMENT (patent pending)


Our patent pending Easy Tip Lock Replacement feature saves time
and money. Buttons can be replaced without sacrificing the entire
tip section. The
repair is easy
enough to be
done in the field so sticks stay on the job longer and repair costs go
down. Bucket operable models not available with Tip Lock feature.

BLUE STRIPE® PATENTED ALIGNMENT FEATURE


The most revolutionary design change to hot sticks since fiberglass is our patented
BLUE STRIPE® alignment feature. Extending even our 50 footer is easy with this
ingenious button
alignment feature.

CNC MACHINED BUTTONS & SPLINE ENDS


The most vulnerable parts of any stick are the spring loaded plastic buttons and
the spline ends. Molded and cast parts can be less
expensive to produce, but are often less durable. We
machine each button and aluminum spline end out of
solid material.

75 lb Weight Rating!
Product Dimensions: 6.5” x 6.5” x .5”
Product Weight: 5 oz

Unlike conventional molded bucket hooks, the Bucket Mate is machined from high
performance polymer and far more rugged than traditional PVC. Nearly indestructible,
even in cold temperatures and rated at 75 lbs.

The Bucket Mate is double ended allowing the large hook to accept a tool bag, while
the opposing smaller ½” end will accept blanket holes without damaging the blanket.

Designate USBM-004-W
to specify the wider slot
Bucket Mate that can
accommodate the next
generation of thicker
insulated buckets.

This product comes with a


5 year unlimited warranty
against breakage.

LOAD-RANGER® XLT Load Break Tool

LIGHT
Weighing under 5 pounds,
the XLT line of Load Break
Tools are by far the lightest
portable load break tools
available in the world. The
XLT-1 is approximately
1 lb 3 oz lighter than the
competition. Tool weight
becomes extremely SAFE
important when the tool The Utility Solutions
is attached to the end of XLT product line
a fiberglass operating has the highest
stick. The lighter the measured metal-
better for optimum to-metal clearance
tool control and of any load break
minimal operator tool. This greatly
fatigue. reduces flash-over
potential during
operation.

USLR-XLT-1

EASY
The XLT line was designed to be user
friendly and simple to operate. It incorporates
an optional counter and a unique reset button
located on the side which allows full tool
reset without glove removal. This results in NO
MORE PINCHED FINGERS. Spare parts are

SMOOTHER SURFACE
Conventional fiberglass construction uses a woven matt. This creates
pockets and voids where dirt and moisture can collect. Our unique
non-woven fiberglass is unidirectional which creates a smoother
surface. The BLUE STRIPE® Fiberglass Hot Sticks have a lineman
friendly grip, stay
cleaner longer,
and are easier to
clean and meet
standards.

EPOXY RESIN
The BLUE STRIPE® Fiberglass Hot Stick line uses Epoxy resin
which is the most water resistant, durable, and longest lasting resin
available and has superior electrical properties. Our sticks have a very
high resistance to failure due to water absorption or delamination.

HIGH PERFORMANCE CLOSED CELL FOAM


Tip sections and foam filled sticks offer an added
measure of safety by preventing water from
entering the inside. Our superior Closed Cell
Foam construction is durable and long lasting;
extending the safety margin.

EASY TIP LOCK REPLACEMENT (patent pending)


Our patent pending Easy Tip Lock Replacement feature saves time
and money. Buttons can be replaced without sacrificing the entire
tip section. The
repair is easy
enough to be
done in the field so sticks stay on the job longer and repair costs go
down. Bucket operable models not available with Tip Lock feature.

BLUE STRIPE® PATENTED ALIGNMENT FEATURE


The most revolutionary design change to hot sticks since fiberglass is our patented
BLUE STRIPE® alignment feature. Extending even our 50 footer is easy with this
ingenious button
alignment feature.

CNC MACHINED BUTTONS & SPLINE ENDS


The most vulnerable parts of any stick are the spring loaded plastic buttons and
the spline ends. Molded and cast parts can be less
expensive to produce, but are often less durable. We
machine each button and aluminum spline end out of
solid material.
