This information is from August of 2009 so you will need to see if it
is still valid.
I wrote Phillystran asking:
I have a quantity of the older Phillystran from before the guy grip
system was deployed. It is the 5/16" EHS equivalent (11,000 lbs breaking
strength) Phillystran for tower guying. Is it still possible to get
potting heads and potting compound for this older Phillystran?
================================================================='
And the reply:
Yes we still make potting heads and resin available for these types of
circumstances, but the cost is much higher than back in the 'good 0le
days'.
The HPTG 11200 requires 3/8" open or closed spelter sockets. An open
socket is $48.25ea and the closed sockets are $40.00ea. Potting resin
sold by the kit is $75.00/kit. Each kit will fill 25 sockets assuming
you line up all your ends and pour them together as a single batch.
I've attached a potting procedure as well as tech sheets on the sockets.
This order would not go thru Texas Towers but would be a factory direct
order. Payment would be by either VISA or MasterCard credit card and
shipment would be UPS ground only. Prices are FOB Montgomeryville, PA.
