ROTBLOC UTL
PROACTIVE POLE PRESERVATION FROM ALAMON
Be proactive when protecting your wood pole infrastructure investment with ROTBLOC UTL from Alamon. ROTBLOC UTL is a highly durable, cost-effective, non-toxic barrier wrap 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.
IMPROVE POLE PERFORMANCE
Oregon State University’s Wood Science & Engineering College of Forestry exposed ROTBLOC to severe UV exposure and heavy rainfall for three years during field tests in Hilo, Hawaii. They found no evidence of cracking, splitting or other surface damage, and ROTBLOC’s patented material remained flexible.
- Ideal for utility poles being set in concrete or poles that are being moved

DUAL BENEFIT PROTECTION
ROTBLOC UTL keeps chemical preservatives from migrating from the wood pole into the surrounding soil. This has the dual benefit of keeping more of the preservative in the wood, thereby contributing to a more reliable 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 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.
