[bars] Rotor Mast

[Jwahar Bammi]

Greg,

If it does not have to be 2in od ? Go to Loews or Home Depot and you can buy a fencing top rail, its galvanized/10.5 ft x 1 3/8 in, and is economical (showing $21 on their web site, they used to be around $14 last year, sigh!). I have several of them deployed as masts for antennas. The Gal really lasts, and they can be stacked as one end is tapered to fit the bottom of the next, my Discone scanner antenna is on top of two of these stacked (and guyed of course), I deployed it about 5 years ago, and it’s still going. You may have to buy a different U bolt to accommodate a slimmer mast, depending on the U bolt you have.

Hello. Does anyone know a good place to purchase a 10 foot long 2 inch OD mast ? Aluminum or galvanized pipe. 

Thanks
