I found 9 NOS, Andrew LDF12 "Sureground" grounding kits down in the
dungeon that I was saving but will never use. Each OEM bag contains a
roll of Scotch 3M, Type 700 Commercial/Industrial, 7 mil tape, approx
21' x 2" and rated for up to 190F service. This is the best tape I have
ever used for sealing coaxial connections.
Also included is a roll of Andrew Commercial/Industrial "hand-moldable"
sealing tape. Approx 22" x 2-1/2". Slightly over 1/8" thick and very
soft and gooey. Meant to be hand molded/formed over sensitive
connections before the final layers of the outer tape is applied.
Also included is a ~38" long, #6 insulated, stranded copper cable for
tower grounding. One end has an attached copper "cradle" or "strap" that
can open & close making it easy to wrap around the tower leg. The copper
strap is about 6"-7" long (if you were to open itup & flatten it out and
about 1-3/4" wide. Copper is nice and very shiny. The other end of the
#6 cable has a heavy-duty, crimped on (with double holes), terminal lug
with ~3/8" holes. Also in the kit are a pair of 1" long x 3/8" dia. SS
bolts that are designed to go through the 2 terminal lug holes of the
crimped on terminal. The 2 bolts come with 4 lock washers, 2 nuts and
are all S.S.Also is some anti-seize compound in a separate sealed bag.
As these are NOS some of them may have some of the black "hand-moldable"
sealant on some of the items in the bag because Andrew does not put that
stuff in a separate baggy. Also one bag was opened up by me so I could
make measurements of the items listed above. All bags have an Andrew
instructionsheet. Asking $20 per kit. A USPS medium or large flat rate
box would work well here for 4-6 of them unless someone wanted to
purchase all of them, in which case I would need to put them all in a
slightly larger box and ship via FedEx, USPS, etc. PayPal works aok for me.
