TTians Thanks for all of the responses and ideas. However, no seems to have addressed question. I concede that the top section of the mast (i.e above the tower and a few feet into the tower) should b

Does anyone use seamless stainless steel? I had an 8 foot piece up for about 15 years stacking a 4 element 10 meter beam and a 3 element 6 meter beam without problem. George W7LFD List Sponsor: Champ

Rotational stress will work harden aluminum more than you might guess. Many years ago I noticed my 3el 40 freewheeling. I climbed the tower expecting to bring down the rotator, but when I got up ther

That's a fairly insignificant load so the choice of materials probably didn't make any difference - water pipe would've worked. The suitability of the material itself depends on its yield strength -

You better believe it. Rotational torque will elongate any hole with a bolt thru it. With an array your size, the aluminum mast will have a short service life. For anyone putting more than one antenn

Steve, You are correct about the elongation of holes in aluminum. It will take less time in aluminum than steel but it will still happen in steel with a large load. Now if aluminum to aluminum is pro
