Description
The Spiderbeam 12m XHD fiberglass mast with M6 eye is perfect for building all kinds of wire antennas. The true connoisseurs know, for the radio hobby there is only one brand of fiberglass poles and that is Spiderbeam. The spiderbeam Extra Heavy Duty fiberglass masts are easily set up by one person within minutes. Specially designed for the radio hobby. The Spiderbeam 12m XHD fiberglass pole with M6 eye is extremely strong, with a much greater wall thickness (up to 2 mm!) than the usual “rod” types. A special strengthening technique is used. Several layers of fiberglass are cross-wrapped alternately; this provides greatly increased lateral and linear strength. Stronger connections are achieved by increasing the overlap between individual tube segments.
