I used 1/2 Lexan plate with SS clamps for my 6-mtr beam. It was W4RNL design. Has worked well for many yrs. now.

I am currently rebuilding my six meter six element beam and would like to use Hygain element to boom clamps. Are there any standard conversions for element length different to a standard u-bolt or insulated top mounted element clamp? I believe you are required to add the boom diameter to the overall element length but is there any other consideration as a genera rule? The Hy-gain clamps seem to be considerably more durable for yagi construction than drilling a hole through the element and thus creating a weak point.


Please let me know.  Thanks
