November 16, 2014 – Eaton’s Crouse-Hinds business introduced the V-Spring telescoping light pole to increase safety and reduce labour costs associated with installing and maintaining lights at industrial facilities.

The controlled lowering pole features spring assistance to move the fixture up and down; it may negate the need for workers to work at heights when they need to clean or repair the light because the spring assistance offsets the pole and light’s weight. The V-Spring is fully adjustable from 5 ft to 10 ft, and travels vertically as opposed to a 45° rotational path. It can be locked into any height position without requiring nuts, safety pins or tethers. A 2-in. base pole comes standard on all models and is constructed to meet structural wind ratings.
