Yes. They are made to fit the tower leg diameter AND the length.

The Trylon site says the cable comes in 50' increments. What if you have a
120' tower? Or, as I do, have three TIC rings spaced 30-32 feet apart (i.e.,
requiring three separate cable systems of 30' each)? Do they make custom
cables?

Tuff-tug makes one and so does Metrosite. I have used both and they make
stainless also but it's naturally more. Around the salt that's all I can use
But then I guess that's not an issue for you!

Metro will probably be cheaper.

I sent them an e-mail a while back and their system bounced it.
I just tried again with a different address and it still bounced it.  So
they lost a sale there. I'm going to try one of the other distributors.
