What is disclosed is an insulator for providing insulation between a stringing block for an electrical conductor and a pole or cross arm on which the stringing block is mounted. The insulator is made of a non-conductive material such as plastic. The insulator has an upper opening in the body that is configured for receiving a flange of a stringing roller. The insulator can be configured to be mounted directly to a pole or cross arm, such as by using a ratcheting strap. Alternatively the insulator can be configured to be positioned between the roller and a base, such as those known in the prior art.
