Conserving these large, essential timber poles is highly recommended and necessary. However, it is often a costly procedure.

Repairing and maintaining wood utility poles with Timberbond is a cost-effective way to restore a pole's integrity and extend its operational life. Timberbond is available in two formulations to meet a variety of repair needs.

How is it used?

Timberbond is a useful product to repair end grain splitting, rotting, and deterioration at the top of wood utility poles. It can be easily applied and create a permanent watertight seal while also filling and strengthening any voids or cracks. Utility companies can apply Timberbond to the pole cap before installation to prevent weather-related pole damage. Just as weather elements can damage wood utility poles, animals and insects can cause even more significant damage. If your wood utility poles suffer damage from termites or woodpeckers, Timberbond can easily and quickly repair the damage and restore the pole to its original strength. With two viscosities to choose from, you can use one to penetrate and fill deep holes and the other to seal the surface.

TimberBond NSG:

TimberBond NSG is a high strength two-component formula that is the fastest, cleanest, most economical wood pole restoration and maintenance system available. It features exclusive non-leak and non-sag characteristics, leaving little need for external preparations. TimberBond NSG can be used for internal and exterior damage and pole capping to ensure long-term pole integrity.

TimberBond VFG:

The primary use of TimberBond VFG is for deeper penetration in areas of known decay or inaccessible debris. TimberBond VFG is a high strength two-component formula with a lower viscosity than TimberBond NSG. If used in the initial stages of the utility pole repair, maintenance, and restoration process, you can finish by applying TimberBond NSG upon completion.
