Have you checked out fiber glass rod I got mine for .38 cents per foot
at polygon company in Walkerton in. then you use the big grips for the
5/16 ehs ends this way was a lot less then buying all insulators and
clamps that I needed to make it go together.
http://www.polygoncompany.com you get 5000 feet for less than 2300.00
dollars ours cost us 1900 but we went in as group and bought it that way
because min is 5000 foot min order.
More you buy less is the cost.
