Air 45 ft (14 m) Guyed Tower Kit
The AIR tower kit includes a simple yet effective elbow/tee for its
base. Combined with a short length of tubing this type of base
eliminates the need for a concrete pad, base plate and a swivel for the
base of the tower.
A simple extruded aluminum, coupling clamp allows the use of a wide
selection of different kinds of tubing, depending on availability, site
requirements and customer preference. Threaded coupling points are
eliminated, allowing lighter materials to be used with the same or
greater strength than a threaded pipe tower. The upper guy wire
attachment clamps onto the upper mast section. This reduces the number
of pieces of tubing used to construct the tower and reduces the
stresses concentrated at this point. While this method is easier to
assemble, the main benefit is an increase in the fatigue strength of
the tower, which allows lighter weight materials to be used with
greater safety. Pre-cut and swaged guy wires eliminate wire measuring
and cutting.
