MetMarkers Applications

P&R Technologies has been the worldwide leader in marking power lines since 1960, and we have extended our expertise to marking the supporting guy lines for met towers, smaller radio towers, wind turbine installations, and similar obstructions. Marking these dangerous obstructions has become increasingly critical as renewable energy markets continue to grow and more pilots and wildlife are put at risk.

We recommend that each guy wire be marked with a MetMarker at 10ft (3m) below the guy ring on the top set of guy wires. To mark for low flying raptors, we recommend an additional set of markers be installed lower on the same guy wires at least 10ft (3m) above the highest point of vegetation.

Features & Specifications

MetMarkers are available in 9" and 20" diameters and in three colors: international orange, yellow, or white. Like our renowned SpanGuard power line markers, MetMarkers are made of a durable, high tech plastic with a special UV weather cap to ensure long life and brilliant color.

Installation

The markers attach to the cables with U-bolts for easy installation. Each MetMarkers kit consists of four (4) cable markers and installation hardware, which includes mounting brackets and 1/4" stainless steel nuts and bolts.
