ROTBLOC UTL

PROACTIVE POLE PRESERVATION FOR UTILITY POLES

Be proactive when protecting your wood pole infrastructure investment with ROTBLOC UTL from Alamon. ROTBLOC UTL is a highly durable, cost-effective, non-toxic impermeable barrier system that acts like a suit of armor to protect wood poles at and below the groundline where they are most vulnerable to rot-induced failure. ROTBLOC UTL is installed ideally prior to pole setting, but can also be installed on any existing pole in the field at any stage of life, and incorporated into Pole Inspection and Treatment programs.

APPLICATIONS

IMPROVE POLE SERVICE LIFE WITH ROTBLOC UTL

Recommended Applications (1 wrap)

  • Retrofitting newly installed utility poles that have already been set (5 yrs. or less) to protect the poles’ chemical preservative concentration and add years of service life
  • Replacement of paper / felt
  • No climb animal deterrent
  • Pole inspections

Recommended Full Coverage Applications (5 wraps)

  • All poles where chemical leaching is a concern
  • All southern yellow pine poles
  • All western red cedar poles
  • All poles set in environmentally sensitive areas
  • All poles set in concrete

EXTREMELY DURABLE

ROTBLOC UTL has been tested and approved by Oregon State University’s Wood Science & Engineering College of Forestry.

Since 2013, Oregon State University’s Wood Science & Engineering College of Forestry has exposed ROTBLOC UTL to the harshest environmental conditions at their testing site on Hilo, Hawaii. The site was chosen specifically for its severe UVA exposure, temperature extremes and active biome. Despite the unforgiving setting, OSU researchers found no evidence of product degradation.

ROTBLOC UTL ADVANTAGES

  • Non-toxic installation
  • Easy, fast application
  • Eliminates contact between wood and soil
  • Most durable product of its type available
  • Resistant to UVA exposure, temperature extremes and degradation
  • Affordable solution
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Prevents chemical leaching
  • Made from 100% recycled materials

DUAL BENEFIT PROTECTION

ROTBLOC UTL keeps chemical preservatives from migrating from the wood pole into the surrounding soil, while protecting the pole from fungi and bacteria in the soil. This has the dual benefit of maximizing the effectiveness of the chemical in the pole, while dramatically reducing the decay pressure the pole is subjected to. The result is a substantial reduction in pole degradation, reduced ongoing intrusive inspections and remedial treatments, and increased pole service life.

ROTBLOC UTL: INTEGRITY UNDER PRESSURE

ROTBLOC remains intact under pressure from the most severe UVA exposure, humidity, moisture and environmental decay pressure.

ROTBLOC® UTL from Alamon

ROTBLOC UTL is an ideal solution for poles set in asphalt or concrete.

DECADES OF R&D

Decades of Research and Development went into the compound used for ROTBLOC UTL. It is impervious to chemicals and water, and maintains its integrity under extreme environmental conditions.

ADAPTIVE SEAL

This integrated ROTBLOC UTL feature is an inward facing flange that provides a substantial seal a the top edge. It is designed to maintain contact with the wood utility pole to repel organic debris and help keep it on the outside.

Alamon ROTBLOC UTL Case Study - IBEW Local 9 Training Center, Chicago, IL

ROTBLOC UTL CASE STUDY

When several new utility poles at the IBEW Local 9 Training Center in Chicago, IL prematurely rotted after just three years, the facility’s Training Director reached out to Alamon. He needed an analysis of why it happened, and a reliable solution going forward.

Download the case study to learn what Alamon discovered, and why ROTBLOC UTL was applied to the facility’s new poles to address the issue.
