Ground-line decay means that a typical wooden pole loses strength over time. Once below the 50% strength threshold, pole replacement will be required. Rot-Guard sleeves make conventional ground-line decay impossible, with independent testing proving they add 20 years to the life of a pole from the start.
Based on utility-sponsored testing, Rot-Guard is the only proven and independently tested dual-layer barrier product on the market. The test data proves that sleeves ensure pole strength is maintained over time at the critical ground-line section, improving safety and grid reliability.
