KORTICK LAG SCREWS are used to attach Pole line Hardware and Specialties to pole, crossarms, and wood structures.
CONE POINTED FETTER DRIVE THREADS on Lags speed up installation because they can be driven into the wood like a nail, and develop all of the holding power of a regular Gimlet lag thread.
The 3/8-inch diameter and larger FETTER DRIVE SCREWS have a SHOULDER UNDER THE HEAD upset to the same diameter as the threaded section, thus insuring a snug fit in the hole of the hardware installation.
PILOT POINT screws allow the screw to be “tacked” into place before driving the screw into place. This makes for both increased time savings and easier installation.
Fabrication from carbon steel bars or cold heading wire of suitable grade and quality.
Hot dip galvanized per latest revision ASTM Specifications A153, threads cleaned of excess zinc by the Centrifugal Method.
Conform to latest revision EEI Specification TD-3. Heads are American Standard Regular and conform to the minimum body strengths noted below.

AKA: Stubbing bands, Stubb reinforcing bands
Most commonly used for: Kortick stubb reinforcing bands and fittings add years of life to a pole with a rotted, weakened butt. To use, set a correct length stub, approximately the same diameter and ground depth as the pole, and securely bind stub and pole above the ground line at two or more points, selecting and using the stubbing combination best adapted.
Features that make it fit this use better: An economical way to prolong the replacement of rotting and weakened poles.
Made with: Reinforcing Bands and Curved Washers are fabricated from “strip” steel. Half Oval Washers are malleable. The Stubber is fabricated from 2” schedule 80 pipe 5-1/2” long and is called a stubbing pipe also known as K4312. All fittings are hot dip galvanized to increase resistance to corrosion.
Standards, Standard Measures and dimensions: Stubbing fixture “A” consists of 4 bands to wrap around the pole and stub and four 5-inch pipes to tighten the assembly. Mounted two at the top and two at the bottom of the stub.
Crossarm bolts or double arming bolts, fetter drive screws and nails are not furnished with the stubbing fixtures. When required, they should be specified and ordered separately.
When ordering stubbing fixtures illustrated and described on the following pages specify the exact number of each length band and the specific fittings you require. DO NOT ORDER IN SETS.
