Hi  All,

Found some very handy inexpensive guy rope tensioners suitable for 
lightweight tubular verticals such as the Titanex range and similar.
Handles 
2 - 5mm guy ropes.
They're called Clamcleat Line-Loks, available very reasonably from:-
http://www.cleats.co.uk/home/default.asp

Been using 5 of them with 4.5mm Kevlar to steady my Titanex V-160-HD in
some 
bad storms over the past year.

I've no connection with the Firm at all, just passing on the info.
