sleeve of hard rubber, enclosing a length of iron pipe which is vulcanized into the rubber. The latter projects over the iron at the end where the wires enter. The other end of the pipe projects from the rubber, and carries a regular gas pipe thread for connection to the goose neck or pipe bracket. To reduce surface leakage, the length of the exposed hard rubber is made as long as possible. It will be seen that by completely insulating the pipe and all that it supports, and leading the wires through it inside the pipe, the necessity for the insulator usually placed between the hood and the pipe is obviated, as well as the cross arm with insulators above the hood. This bracket is manufactured by the Electrical Supply company, Chicago.
