LOCKE'S NEW INSULATOR AND PIN

 

The accompanying cut represents Mr. Fred. M. Locke's new porcelain insulator, which is made from the highest grade of hard porcelain ware. It is designed for heavy line work and is very strong and durable. The three petticoats on this insulator present a high insulating surface which has proved so efficient in his large triple petticoat insulators for high voltage power transmission in use all over the world. Those desiring to construct their lines with the highest insulation accompanied with strength and safety should secure them for their lines. The insulator is shown full size.

Locke's Petticoat Insulator and Pin.

 

We illustrate also the new Locke steel pin, two-thirds real size. This pin has been designed for heavy work in combination with the strong porcelain insulator just shown. Its introduction will be greatly appreciated as such an article has been needed. These specialties are being made by Mr. Locke, at his factory, Victor, N. Y.
