Everybody I know who went with polyrod ended up replacing with Phillystran.
My 150 foot Rohn 45G was installed in 1999 with 6700 Phillystran at four
points. I expect it to last at least another 20 years. Hope I live that long!

I recall back maybe 20 years ago that PVRC members put together a group
buy of fiberglas guy rod from the manufacturer. Instead of risking used
Phillystran, or paying $2.05 a foot from DXEngineering, for such a
major project you might get together with others and explore doing a
bulk purchase from the manufacturer. The stuff might be available in
1000-foot rolls for a considerably more reasonable price.
