Why not cut a piece of PE(cutting board) or Plexiglass to fit the top of 
the tower  They will give a smooth, slippery, abrasion free surface to 
just lay the coax on.

> Has anyone in this group tried three quarter inch type NM non-metallic liquid-tight conduit to protect the RG-213 rotor loop from abrasion when the RG-213 is tied to one leg of the tower and then wound around the mast so as to tighten or untighten one half turn of the two turns laid on the tower bearing plate? Three quarter inch liquid-tight conduit easily allows the RG-213 with PL-259 to pass making future replacement of the liquid-tight conduit if necessary, easy. I’m getting ready to try liquid-tight conduit as protection of the rotor loop and appreciate any observations or comments.
