The Stay Bow connects High Voltage Aerial Bundled Cable (HV ABC) stay wire to ground anchors, providing mechanical support for utility poles and similar structures. Available in 5/8″ (M16) and 3/4″ (M20) diameters, it forms part of a bow type stay rod assembly alongside the stay rod, stay plate, and stay thimble, distinguishing it from tubular type systems that use turnbuckles and eye rods.
Manufactured from Q235B high-strength carbon steel with hot-dip galvanized surface treatment per ASTM A123 and ISO 1461 standards, the Stay Bow resists corrosion in outdoor environments. Its bow-shaped structure distributes stress evenly, achieving a minimum breaking load of 31 kN. Standard lengths range from 1200 mm to 2400 mm, with custom sizes available.
The design performs reliably in temperatures from -20°C to +60°C, humidity up to 90%, wind speeds to 140 km/h, and seismic events up to 7.0 magnitude. Length and tension adjustability during installation enables optimal alignment, while the bow configuration dampens vibrations in high-wind or seismic-prone areas.
Primary applications include stabilizing power poles, transmission towers, and telecommunications infrastructure. The Stay Bow reinforces overhead distribution lines against lateral forces in electric power and telecom sectors, with standardized fittings facilitating straightforward ground anchor installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)
What is the Stay Bow and what is its primary function?
The Stay Bow is an accessory used with HV ABC stay wire to connect the stay wire to ground anchors. It works together with stay rod, plate, and thimble to provide stability in ground anchor applications.
What materials and specifications does the Stay Bow have?
The Stay Bow is constructed from Grade 700 SWG 7/8 steel with a hot-dip galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. It withstands a minimum breaking load of 31kN and is available for stay rod sizes 5/8 and 3/4 (item codes DSSB-ABC-SBT5.8 and DSSB-ABC-SBT3.4).
How does the Stay Bow assemble with other components?
The Stay Bow goes across the screw of the stay rod and is fixed in place by the ratchet nut. The stay rod is typically set at 45 degrees to the horizon, with a square head on one end and a threaded section of 100-300mm on the other.
What is the difference between bow type and tubular type stay rods?
The bow type includes the Stay Bow, stay rod, stay plate, and stay thimble, and is widely used in Southeast Asia. The tubular type replaces the Stay Bow with a turnbuckle and eye rod, and is mainly used in Africa and Saudi Arabia.
How do you ensure quality and compliance for utility grid applications?
RaxPower implements strict quality control from raw materials to finished products, with all goods undergoing rigorous testing. Our stay bows are hot-dip galvanized to ASTM and ISO standards and have passed SGS tests and other authoritative certifications.
