Our sections are fabricated to 20’ length standard. Our different models include 18-G,
24-G, 30-G 36-G, 42-G, 48-G and 58-G (18” face, 24” face, 30” face etc…). All sections
are fit-up in heat-treated and milled jigs to insure straight square sections and
eliminate any potential problems with twisting or the need to shim legs. We utilize 50
ksi solid rounds for the legs and 36 ksi solid rounds for the braces. Solid rounds
eliminate any problems with ice splitting the legs or unseen corrosion. Typical tower
sections have a z-brace configuration with horizontals at every bay. Pivot Base sections
are standard with every tower. Climbing braces are incorporated into one face of the
section. Coax brackets can be welded on one, two or all three faces inside and out to
your specifications.
Our three-bolt flange design is 25% faster in bolt up than the commonly used 4-bolt
design. Additionally, our flanges have a lower profile than square flanges and rounded
corners to help reduce the potential of rigging being snagged when hoisting loads up the
tower. Other accessories such as torque arms, antenna mounts and even our anchor shafts
with rigging lugs are designed with the erector in mind.
