Applications of Tiger Tails

Tiger Tails are robust, highly visible cable covers that provide a visual  warning to all people working near live overhead powerlines.

They do not reduce safe approach distances or allow you to work closer to power lines.  Their purpose is to provide temporary electrical insulation and/or mechanical protection.

They can also be used in many non-electrical applications, including:

• Overhead telecommunication lines
• Fence markers
• Boat oar protectors
