The Preformed grips for Phillystran are like a chinese finger puzzle.
They wrap around the Phillystran and the harder you pull, the more they grip.
The businesses that handle Phillystran - Texas Towers and Burghardt Radio -
can provide what ever you need.

What kind of tower? Rohn 25G uses 3/16" EHS. The Phillystran equivalent
is HPTG4000.
> I plan on a c-3 18' boom.The c-3 weighs only 32# which make me wonder
about strength,longevity and the driven element insulator.
It's below the boom and mostly out of the purview of UV sunlight so it
should last for quite awhile.
> Also if the guys will be at the 46' height how far from the tower should
i place the guy screws? I want to make sure it is done right the first time.
Well, Rohn specs call for guy anchors 80% of the height of the tower.
