Conductor Bar Systems
Conductix-Wampfler is the # 1 manufacturer of Conductor Bar Systems for crane electrification and other mobile equipment. Conductor bar is a safe and economical method to solve mobile electrification requirement. We were the first to offer "8-bar" insulated conductor bar for crane electrification in the US back in 1952. Now you can choose from six unique systems for virtually any need from 100 to 1500 amperes and more. We've manufactured the brands you have trusted for the past 60 years: Insul-8, Wampfler, and Saf-T-Bar - now part of the Conductix-Wampfler conductor bar family.

This is the original Howell Corporation Saf-T-Bar® Series C conductor bar system. Bars are roll-formed of galvanized steel or copper/steel laminate (250A) or copper (300A and 350A). The “U” shaped contact surface ensures positive tracking of the collector shoe and ensures good contact throughout the travel of the system. The standard material is supplied in 10 ft lengths with all necessary joining hardware. Installation is simple and requires only a jointing tool to connect the rails.
Current Capacity Range: 90 amps to 350 amps
Maximum Running Speed: 900 feet/minute (274.3 meters/minute)
