Conover Insulator Company introduces a new improved cleat.

A Two-Wire Cleat.

An improved form of two-wire cleat has recently been placed upon the market by the Conover Insulator Company, Cincinnati, O. These cleats are made of vitrified china in one solid piece. They are self-tying, and this feature is not dependent upon the tension of the supporting screws. The danger of breakage is thus obviated, and they prevent the disfigurement of the ceiling by dust and smoke settling around the wire. The insulation of the circuit is also increased by preventing the contact of the wire with the ceiling. They are made of one size for No. 10 and smaller insulated wire. The annular tie wire groove of the common knob for dead ending purposes is retained.
