Wilson -
I'm assuming you mean the Nicopress sleeves?
I've used both, but zinc plated makes sense if you're using zinc plated guy
wire.
If you use the Nicopress sleeves make sure you have the proper Nicopress crimp
tool. These are not cheap, but required for a proper job. If you have lots of
ends to secure, it's worth the price and much easier than u-bolt and saddle
approach.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Crimp Sleeves
What’s the preferred material for crimp sleeves on EHS wire?
I’m guessing copper, but haven’t found real instructions.
Maybe zinc plated?
Any favorite sources? I see them on Amazon.
