Y-Clevis Eye, Clevis Eye Width 0.75 in
A clevis eye is a forged line hardware component used in overhead transmission and distribution systems to provide a secure, articulating connection point between insulators, suspension clamps, crossarms, and other line fittings. Designed to accommodate mechanical loads and dynamic conductor movement, the clevis eye ensures axial alignment and load transfer while minimizing stress concentration at connection interfaces.
Manufactured from high-strength carbon or alloy steel and hot-dip galvanized for corrosion resistance, clevis eyes are engineered to meet stringent mechanical and dimensional tolerances required in utility-grade infrastructure.
Key Features
- High Mechanical Strength: Designed to withstand specified tensile and shear loads in transmission and distribution applications.
- Precision Forging: Drop-forged construction for uniform grain flow and enhanced structural integrity.
- Corrosion Protection: Hot-dip galvanized coating in accordance with relevant ASTM/ISO standards.
- Dimensional Accuracy: Machined pin holes ensure proper fitment with clevis pins and cotter assemblies.
- Load Articulation Capability: Allows controlled angular movement to accommodate conductor swing and thermal expansion.
- Standards Compliance: Manufactured to utility and international power line hardware specifications.
- Long Service Life: Engineered for durability under cyclic loading, wind-induced vibration, and environmental exposure.
