SALTUS™ Composite poles
for the Agricultural Industry

The SALTUS™ Composite Pole has been developed in co-operation with the industry since 2012. The internationally patented design guarantees the BEST VALUE composite utility pole in the world.

CARBON FIBRE DESIGN, manufacturer of WORLD CLASS QUALITY carbon fibre and glass fibre poles, introduces the REVOLUTIONARY and worldwide patented COMPOSITE SUPPORT POLE

INNER LAYER: PLASTIC TUBING

Plastic tubing is used for increasing wall thickness and also adds elasticity to protect fibreglass shell. Plastic tubing is typically used as water irrigation pipe and has very little load bearing compressive strength.

MIDDLE LAYER: FIBREGLASS WITH RESIN

Fibreglass acts as main load bearing material with its excellent compressive and tensile strength properties. Fibreglass to resin ratio is 70:30.

The SALTUS™ Composite Support Pole for Vineyards

To enable you to choose the correct diameter SALTUS Pole, please refer to the table below. Seeing that the Saltus Pole is an engineered pole, the Saltus Pole diameter is slightly smaller than the equivalent timber pole for the same strength.

Wind Design

Deflection at top of pole as calculated for a wind load force of 112 km/h (365Pa). As can be seen from the table, all designs are within the specification of 15%  deflection of total length above ground when carrying full grape load.

The SALTUS™ Composite Poles

Relevant pole data is based on a shape factor of 0.7 and a calculated wind pressure of 365-700 Pa depending on application
