Polywater UPR Wood Utility Pole Repair

Polywater UPR Wood Utility Pole Repair is the ideal solution for repairing and restoring damaged wood utility poles, maximizing their life expectancy and ensuring continued reliability. Designed to effectively fill and repair woodpecker holes, cracks, and hardware holes on wood poles and cross arms, Polywater UPR is available in two formulations: UPR-PR and UPR-NF (no flow). This high-performance woodpecker hole filler helps seal pole tops and other damaged areas, preventing rot and decay. The expanding foam formula fills irregular-shaped cavities, integrating with the wood to restore the structural integrity of the pole.

Polywater UPR woodpecker hole repair kits offer superior adhesion, filling gaps in wood fibers, and curing to the strength of Southern Yellow Pine and Douglas Fir. Its quick-mixing two-part resin and hardener formula can be applied easily with a standard high-ratio caulking gun, requiring no special tools. The UPR-NF formula increases viscosity as it expands, minimizing leaks from cracks and crevices and ensuring a faster, more efficient application process.

Key Features:

• Expands & Fills: The utility pole foam expands to completely fill irregular-shaped cavities, eliminating the need for pilot holes.
• Strong Adhesion: Integrates with wood fibers and cures to the strength of wood poles, offering long-lasting repairs.
• Durable & Gaffable: Once hardened, the foam is strong enough to safely hold climbing spikes (gaffs), ensuring safety during maintenance.
• Quick & Easy Application: Two-part formula mixes directly in the nozzle and can be applied with a standard high-ratio caulking gun, requiring no special tools.
• OSHA Compliant: Meets OSHA requirements, reducing the likelihood of decay while ensuring that poles are safe for climbing after repair.
• Moisture Resistant: Repels moisture and absorbs less than 1% water even after 7 days of exposure to high temperatures.

Tested Performance:

• Compressive strength similar to Southern Yellow Pine and Douglas Fir as per ASTM D1691.
• Successfully tested with Buckingham gaffs, ensuring the repaired areas can safely hold climbing equipment.
• In-service temperature range from -40°F to 150°F (-40°C to 66°C), making it suitable for use in various climates.

Polywater UPR Wood Utility Pole Repair is the trusted solution for restoring the structural integrity of damaged utility poles, protecting them from further decay, and extending their service life. With its quick application process and powerful expanding foam formula, Polywater UPR ensures strong, long-lasting repairs that resist moisture and support ongoing maintenance operations.
