Tnx. Good anchors have pullout resistance specs that vary depending on the type of anchor and the soil. The pullout specs on the American model PE46-guy are very impressive when compared to the ancho

I can't imagine climbing a tower held up by aluminum screw anchors. And what if one hits a rock on the way down? A friend of mine learned the hard way in a storm last summer about inadequate guying.

Most screw-in anchors depend on the combination of the soil and the perpendicular surfaces of the screw-in anchor for its holding ability. This anchor states its maximum https://www.westechrigging.co
