Chance Epoxiglas® Telescoping Tools have maximum convenience for the lineman because they permit him to perform many routine jobs from ground level. The universal end fitting on the insulated top section accepts a wide variety of attachments so that the lineman can disconnect switches, replace cutout tubes and reclose, remove pole covers, prune trees and complete many other overhead tasks... all with one tool. The sticks retract to approximately 5 ft. so that they can be carried on most trouble trucks, often in the cab section. Heavy duty, spring-loaded plastic buttons, keep the extended tool sections securely locked in position. As each section is extended and twisted slightly, the buttons pop into place, allowing working to be done with complete control and confidence.
