I use if for mounting boxes on the tower, dipole standoff arms, side
mounting small fiberglass UHF, VHF and TV antennas.

It comes in all sizes and shapes.
The big box stores even have it, and the straps for conduit sizes.
Plumbing and tubing straps are also available.
Also available in galvanized at most electrical supply houses. Both the
lager and smaller stuff.
Thanks

And for what the big box stores don't have, McMaster-Carr will deliver
it UPS the next day, at least in the US.
It's available painted, bare, galvanized, steel, aluminum, and
fiberglass, in a myriad of sizes and shapes that are mostly compatible
with each other.
I think of it as an Erector Set for grownups.
If you're working with "round tubes" and need to connect them securely,
there's products for scaffolding that work nicely.

I know them as Cheeseborough clamps, but I suspect that's a specific
tradename.
They're used in theatrical rigging, and are available to fit all sizes
of pipe and tube.
The simple ones are about $5 each, and you could probably buy them used
from a rigging supply place.
