POLY-SET® is a
patented, specially modified water-insensitive polyurethane and a state-of-the-art
backfill that dramatically improves profit and productivity in setting and straightening
applications.
HOW IT WORKS. POLY-SET®
expands up to 15 times its premixed liquid volume as it fills the
void, forming a tightly packed anchoring foundation that is stronger than the pole itself.
It hardens into a virtually indestructible pole-to-backfill-to-ground bond. It can be used
with any type of pole and cures quickly enough for you to release the pole in
approximately 10-15 minutes.
WHY IT WORKS.
The tightly packed molecular structure of POLY-SET®
creates a bond with the pole. POLY-SET®
actually contours to the shape of the excavated area, essentially locking itself
and the pole into place. It is quick, efficient and replaces the back breaking effort of
tamping soil.
WHY IT LASTS.
Unlike any alternative backfill, POLY-SET®
is impervious to
moisture. Compared to other backfills it is more resistant to heat, cold, microbacterial attack and physical stress. POLY-SET® has a compressive strength that is up to three times greater than
properly tamped native soil.
POLY-SET®
consists of two liquid components that are mixed together and then poured into a
void. It comes in a variety of kit sizes ranging from a 1 cubic foot kit for straightening
poles to the 10 cubic feet for setting larger structures like Transmission poles.
