Phillystran HPTG-I High Performance Broadcast Tower and Antenna Guy Lines
Phillystran HPTG-I High Performance Broadcast Tower and Antenna Guy Lines are constructed from tough Aramid fiber. Aramid fiber features excellent dielectric properties and a strength-to-weight ratio five times greater than steel guy wire! Add to that their low-stretch and low-creep characteristics—and you have an ideal material for broadcast tower guys. Today's Phillystran tower guying systems based on Aramid fiber are the result of many years of real-world experience. Phillystran HPTG-I systems eliminate the problems associated with EHS steel cable, such as electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), signal suppression, directional irregularities and white-noise arcing. You may not have a broadcast tower, but your Amateur Radio tower can benefit by using Phillystran HPTG-I High Performance Broadcast Tower and Antenna Guy Lines from DX Engineering!

DX Engineering Tower Accessory Shelves
DX Engineering Tower Accessory Shelves are custom made by DX Engineering in two sizes and styles to fit different size ROHN and Amerite Towers. Made from 3/16 in. thick, laser-cut "304" Stainless Steel, each DXE Accessory Shelf comes with all stainless steel tower mounting hardware for long-lasting, durable strength. Both accessory shelves have four slotted holes (no drilling required*) to mount the most popular rotators from Yaesu, DX Engineering, M2 Antennas and Hy-Gain, and two additional holes are provided for rotator models with six mounting bolts. Rotator or positioner mounting bolts are not included with these plates; they are provided by the manufacturer with each rotator unit. Two models of DX Engineering Tower Accessory Shelves are available. Click the part details below to see more images of each model: - DXE-AS25G fits ROHN 25G and Amerite 25 towers, with formed integral brackets for v-bolt clamps. This plate is used ONLY for mounting a rotator at the top of a 25 top section or where there are no cross braces on a 25 straight section that would interfere with installation and operation of the rotator. NOTE: ROHN 25G does not accommodate mid-section bearings, so there are no holes for bearings. NO BEARINGS can be mounted on the DXE-AS25G. If you want to use a bearing, use a flat top tower section that accommodates a bearing, or install ROHN 45G or 55G Tower and DXE-AS455G Accessory Shelves. - DXE-AS455G is adjustable to fit ROHN 45G and 55G towers and Amerite -45 and -55 towers. This model accessory shelf mounts all of the rotators listed and features additional holes for mounting DX Engineering Thrust Bearings (DXE-TB300 and DXE TB400). These shelves are mounted with 3/16 in. stainless steel L-brackets and double stainless steel V-bolts at each tower leg. DXE-AS455G may be used anywhere in any 45 or 55 section for a rotator or as a bearing shelf, including as a Top Bearing Plate. As with all stainless steel hardware, a good quality anti-seize lubricant, such as Jet-Lube SS-30 (part number JTL-12555) should be used to avoid galling. When installing, mount the shelf level in the tower. Tighten all bolts evenly. *NOTE: Larger holes are only needed when mounting the OR2800 series M2 Antennas rotator. No holes are provided for Hy-Gain HDR-300 series rotators.)

DX Engineering Heavy-Duty 4130 Chromoly Steel Masts
DX Engineering offers Heavy Duty 4130 Chromoly Steel Masts in both 11 foot and 22 foot lengths. DX Engineering Heavy-Duty 4130 Chromoly Steel Masts offer ham radio operators an opportunity to stack large antennas. These 2-inch and 3-inch outside diameter galvanized masts feature a 0.250-inch wall thickness and meet ASTM A-513 Type 5 ratings. These high-strength carbon steel masts are cold-drawn and electric-welded with a specified yield stress rating of over 100,000 psi! Tensile strength minimum is above 110,000 psi. Minimum Rockwell B hardness is 96. They are temperature stress-relieved to ensure consistent mechanical strength. Compared to standard galvanized plumbing pipe, the Heavy‑Duty 4130 chromoly steel mast offers substantially greater strength and durability. The galvanizing on these masts meets ASTM A123/A123M specifications. As with all hot dip galvanized products, surface irregularities are normal. Any cut ends are protected with a cold galvanizing coating. Important: Because these masts are galvanized, their overall outside diameter will be larger than the nominal size. The 2 inch mast may measure up to 2.070 in. OD, and the 3 inch mast may measure up to 3.130 in. OD. Are you planning on stacking a few mono-banders on the tower? Are you going to have multiple Yagis stacked high and deep on an H frame? Are you raising a BIG log-periodic? If you are going to loft big antennas with a lot of wind area, then you absolutely need a DXE Heavy-Duty 4130 Steel Mast atop your heavy-duty tower! DX Engineering Heavy-Duty 4130 Chromoly Steel Masts may be ordered and picked-up at the Summit Racing Equipment Retail Store, 1200 Southeast Ave, Tallmadge, OH 44278. Because of their length, these masts require truck freight shipping. Our system automatically calculates our low cost truck freight rates to any location within the continental United States. With no obligation to purchase, simply click ADD TO CART, enter your ZIP Code, and click CALCULATE to view your shipping cost. Due to size restrictions, air freight is not available. For information regarding a surface freight shipment of these masts to locations outside of the continental US, send an e-mail inquiry to dxengineering@dxenginering.com.

DX Engineering Porcelain Guy Line Strain Insulators
DX Engineering Porcelain Guy Line Strain Insulators provide the strength, insulation and isolation you need for guyed tower systems. These porcelain insulators accept large guy lines, dead ends or bent-pin shackles and are suitable for all guyed towers where breaking strength for each insulator is not exceeded. DXE-502 insulators are rated at 10,000 lbs. breaking strength. The more-massive DXE-504 insulators take that number to 12,000 lbs. of force. Stranded steel 1/4 EHS cable has a breaking strength of about 6,500 lbs. DXE-504 insulators are nearly twice that value! DX Engineering Porcelain Guy Line Strain Insulators provide flashover insulation of at least 12kV… when wet! These insulators will also let you section your steel guy lines to avoid resonant-length interactions or pattern-modifying interference with your radiated signals. They are perfect for use with synthetic guy lines too. Use them to provide steel lower guy tails to avoid vandalism or damage to synthetics due to large animals. Do towers right! Choose a good design and then buy DX Engineering Porcelain Guy Line Strain Insulators to erect and maintain towers the right way.

ROHN Tower Adjustable House Brackets
ROHN Tower Adjustable House Brackets include the standard duty models for wall and eave bracing of 25G series towers that are installed as self-supporting or guyed. As with all ROHN tower accessories, these bracket models are all galvanized. ROHN Tower Adjustable House Brackets are completely adjustable, from 0 in. up to 36 in. offset depending on model, to handle most house wall bracketing installation of 25G tower where there is an overhanging eave to be cleared. These models HB25AG, HB25BG, and HB25CG are intended for use for a guyed or self-supporting ROHN 25G tower installations. Even for 25G towers that are installed with a sufficient base and design to be self-supporting, many municipalities require towers that are mounted next to a house to be bracketed to the house. ROHN Tower Adjustable House Brackets provide sufficient adjustments for virtually every tower house bracketing situation. The Universal Eave Bracket, model EB2525G, offers hinged connections which allow the tower leg clamps to remain perpendicular to the ground while bolt down supports rotate to lay flat along the pitched roof or under the pitched eave. These ROHN Tower Adjustable House Brackets are for self-supporting or guyed installations only and are not intended for bracketed only tower installations. For "Bracketed Tower" installations of ROHN 25G that are only bracketed and which are not self-supporting and will not be guyed, use the ROHN Heavy Duty Universal House Bracket model HBUTVRO.
