The REACON Single Spool Secondary Rack is a pole-mounted steel component designed to provide a dedicated mounting position for spool insulators in overhead electrical distribution systems.
It is used in secondary conductor arrangements where a defined insulator mounting point is needed on a utility pole. By providing a stable support structure, the rack helps organize the conductor installation and maintain the intended hardware arrangement.
REACON supplies two structural versions: F0522 flat steel secondary rack and F0623 channel steel clevis 7. Both are manufactured from ASTM A36 steel and finished with hot-dip galvanizing according to ASTM A153 requirements.
The two configurations differ in their steel profiles and approximate shipping weights. Customers can select the appropriate version according to the construction drawing, mounting requirements and project specifications.
In addition to conventional secondary line installations, the product family can also be considered for suitable pole-mounted distribution assemblies where compatible spool insulator support hardware is required.
F0522 – Flat Steel Single Spool Secondary Rack
F0522 is manufactured from flat steel according to ASTM A36.
Its flat steel construction provides a straightforward structural arrangement for mounting a single spool insulator. This configuration is suitable for utility projects where the specified rack design uses a flat steel profile.
F0623 – Channel Steel Clevis 7
F0623 uses channel steel manufactured according to ASTM A36.
Compared with the F0522 configuration, this model features a different steel profile. Its selection should be based on the required mounting structure and the approved project drawing.
Both configurations receive hot-dip galvanizing to improve their resistance to outdoor corrosion.

A secondary rack is not simply a general-purpose steel bracket. Its dimensions and mounting configuration must correspond to the insulator and conductor arrangement specified for the distribution structure.
Several factors should be considered when selecting a suitable model:
Insulator Compatibility
The rack must provide a mounting arrangement compatible with the specified spool insulator. The insulator dimensions and fastening method should be checked before procurement.
Pole Mounting Requirements
The attachment points and mounting dimensions need to match the utility pole construction design.
Steel Profile Selection
F0522 and F0623 use different steel configurations. The choice should follow the required structural design rather than shipping weight alone.
Outdoor Exposure
Since the product is installed outdoors, the galvanized finish is an important consideration for long-term protection against environmental exposure.


Both secondary rack configurations use ASTM A36 steel as the base material.
The material is processed into the specified structural profile before the required fabrication and finishing operations are completed.
The manufacturing process generally involves:
1. Steel material preparation.
2. Cutting and forming according to the specified design.
3. Hole processing and dimensional adjustment.
4. Fabrication and assembly where required.
5. Hot-dip galvanizing.
6. Final dimensional and surface inspection.
7. Packaging according to the designated model.
The final product is supplied with a galvanized surface intended to protect the steel substrate from outdoor environmental exposure.

Utility pole hardware is exposed to changing weather conditions throughout its service life.
Rainwater, humidity and atmospheric pollutants can gradually affect unprotected steel components. For this reason, surface treatment is an important part of secondary rack manufacturing.
REACON applies hot-dip galvanizing according to ASTM A153 requirements.
The zinc coating acts as a protective barrier between the steel substrate and the surrounding environment. It helps improve corrosion resistance and reduces the need for frequent surface maintenance.
For projects located in coastal or highly corrosive environments, customers should confirm the required coating specifications and inspection criteria before placing an order.
Single spool secondary racks are primarily used in overhead distribution construction where spool insulators need to be mounted on utility poles.
Typical applications include:
Secondary Conductor Mounting
Provides a mounting point for spool insulators used in secondary conductor arrangements.
Utility Pole Construction
Installed as part of the pole-mounted hardware assembly on suitable wooden or concrete poles.
Transformer Pole Assemblies
Can be incorporated into compatible pole-mounted transformer installations where secondary conductor support is required.
Service Distribution Arrangements
Used in suitable secondary line configurations associated with electrical service distribution.
New Distribution Projects and Maintenance
Can be specified for new pole line construction or replacement of existing secondary rack components when the dimensions and mounting arrangements are compatible.
The installation procedure should be determined by the approved pole line construction drawing.
A typical installation sequence includes:
Step 1: Verify the Product Model
Confirm whether F0522 or F0623 is specified in the project documentation.
Step 2: Check the Pole Mounting Position
Identify the correct installation location and confirm that the mounting surface is suitable.
Step 3: Fix the Secondary Rack
Position the rack and secure it using the specified pole mounting bolts and compatible fastening accessories.
Step 4: Mount the Spool Insulator
Install the spool insulator using the designated mounting arrangement.
Step 5: Install the Secondary Conductor
Arrange the conductor according to the approved line design, ensuring the required clearances and positioning.
Step 6: Inspect the Assembly
Check the fastening points, insulator seating and overall installation condition before the line is energized.
All installation work must be performed by qualified personnel following applicable electrical safety procedures.
Two Steel Construction Options
Flat steel and channel steel versions are available to accommodate different pole line hardware designs.
Specified Material Grade
Both configurations use ASTM A36 steel according to the available product specifications.
Outdoor Surface Protection
ASTM A153 hot-dip galvanizing helps protect the finished steel components against corrosion.
Clearly Identified Stock Numbers
F0522 and F0623 have separate model identification, shipping weight and packaging information.
Project-Based Technical Support
REACON can review customer drawings and help confirm the appropriate model and manufacturing specifications.
