Our Products
Aluminum Structures
Typical Wide Flange Structures, Typical Lattice Structures. Alum-Elec Structures offers you more through economy, flexibility, ease of construction and modificatioin. View Products Here.
Our extruded channels and special fasteners eliminate the need for field drilling of holes when mounting any type of equipment and also make expansion or modification a simple operation.
Pre-assembly of all major parts by us speeds erection and reduces construction site labor and time.
Lightweight, high strength aluminum reduces the need for heavy cranes in the field, reduces corrosion and gives a neat final appearance.
Let adapt our aluminum extrusions and special fasteners to your next substation needs. We will furnish cost figures if you will send us the following information:
- Voltage of incoming and outgoing lines
- Your requirements for line tention and maximum take-off angle
- Specify if lines will be above or below ground
- Number of outgoing feeders (present and future)
- Minimum clearance for equpment to be installed in the area of the structure
- A one-line diagram to show your specific requirements
- If you have a preference as to manufacturer of equipment to be installed on structure, please specify it.
Aluminum Multiform Structures
