Come to Tri-Ex for innovative tower design and 
engineering! Our towers are famous all over the 
world for their strength, stress and wind resistance. 
Now you can buy a superior Tri-Ex tower at 
FACTORY SAVINGS! 

Choose your metal. Towers can be fabricated in 
steel to ASTM Specifications with hot-dipped gal- 
vanized finish (done after construction so that inside 
surfaces are zinc-coated, too). Or in Triexium™, our 
lightweight, corrosion resisting, high-strength light 
alloy. 

Tri-Ex HAM towers are available self-supporting or 
guyed; take your choice. The W series of crank-up 
towers, the LM series of crank-up/tilt-over towers 
and the TM sky needles are self-supporting. 

Use your charge power to buy your tower. Tri-Ex 
honors Visa and Master Charge credit cards. If you 
have questions about tower accessories or which 
size tower is right for your antenna, call Bill Salerno, 
his technical sales know-how is ready to serve you.
