There are galvalized steel guy wire and preforms and then there are
alumuminum covered steel guy wire and preforms called alumoweld. I
believe Texas Towers sells the galvanized steel for their towers. I'm
not sure if they sell alumoweld stuff - that's the stuff that looks like
aluminum. But it is actually steel with a thick aluminum coating.
That's the stuff I need as I have an aluminum tower.

Not sure of the brand, but all of my grips came from Texas Towers and
they are EHS also. They have a yellow painted band near the wrap-start
point and a paper tag on the short end. I always start the wrap using
the short end.

Hello-
I am a little confused about some of the PLP " Big Grips" for 1/4"
EHS guy wire.I have seen some from a tower supply business that had the
correct PLP tags and correct color { even came with PLP instruction
sheet} but they appear to be aluminum?? Is this correct?
