Our entire hardware used in the antennas is made exclusively of stainless steel.
The boom/mast plate for quad 80x80 boom
The boom/mast coupler is made with non-corrosive aluminum, thickness 10mm. Cutting and milling of all the elements are entirely manufactured in Italy. The boom in square tube 80x80 mm thickness 2 mm for HF antennas.
The boom/mast coupler, model 2StQ5L:
The boom/mast coupler, for series L antennas, is made with non-corrosive aluminum, thickness 8mm. Cutting and milling of all the elements are entirely manufactured in Italy. The boom in square tube 70x70 mm thickness 2 mm.
Joints parts of the boom:
The joints of the boom, in the antennas consist of several parts, are made with rivets and plate L stainless steel.
Connection supports models 2StQ5L, 3StQ5L, 3/4StQ5L, 4StQ5L, 4/5StQ5L:
In the L series we use 4 Ubolt diam. 8 mm and alluminium saddle, as shown in the photos.
Vertical rod kit models 2/3 StQ 7 and 4/5 STQ 7:
In the antennas with 40/30 mt band there is provided a kit of tie rods to prevent any deflection of the boom in the vertical plane. The kit consists of a connecting jumper at the mast in aluminum and stainless steel plate. We use braid of Mastrant, thickness 6mm, breaking load CR: 1050kg (2314,8 lb), UV-resistant material. The rest of the components is always made of stainless steel: Redange, duplex terminals, connecting eyebolts, double hoop with regulation.
Vertical rod kit models 2StQ5L, 3StQ5L, 3/4StQ5L, 4StQ5L, 4/5StQ5L:
In the L series, the Ubolt aluminum is replaced by a stainless steel 8mm Ubolt and an aluminum saddle.
Horizontal rod kit
On the models with 4 and more elements, we use an horizontal tie-rods kit, to prevent bending in the horizontal plane. In the very long antennas this kit is absolutely essential to have no problems in crosswind conditions.. It is provided a central aluminum plate on which is applied an aluminum tube 3 mt (9' 10" ft) long; this pipe connect the tie rods Kevlar. All it made of stainless steel and alluminium.
