Universal wire antenna standoff arm for aluminum towers,
like above but comes with stainless saddles and stainless U-bolts
Got my antenna standoff arm from Chris a few months ago, immediately installed on my tower for 75 meter wire. Easy to install and built very well. Sure beats hooking to a tree. Pulley in middle and I supplied end pulleys. Take down and put up wire in 5 minutes. Going to get one of his entry boxes as soon as the weather breaks. W3CUB

Stabilizer arm
Upgrade to stainless steel U-bolts and hardware

Beef up your antenna standoff arm by adding a stabilizer arm. This addition triangulates the mount and prevents the antenna arm from pivoting on the leg. The pulley system can then be used in other directions besides a straight up/down pull (for example, to pull off one end, horizontally) without fear of the arm pivoting on the leg. Attaches easily with included hot dip galvanized hardware. Fits all KF7P Metalwerks standoff arms, past present or future. The angle/direction of the antenna standoff arm is adjustable in just about any direction around the tower. Fits all round leg Rohn towers and TOP SECTION ONLY of most crank up towers.
I purchased this after my own homemade standoff failed. The build is superb, the pulleys make it seamless to let your antenna up or down and mounting on the tower was easy. I will always buy these products and promote Chris and his ham products. Al, WV1Q

NEW! Our new antenna standoff arm fits 60˚ leg towers such as Trylon Titan, Rohn RSL, and AN Wireless. The arm has a robust mounting system that won’t pivot on the leg (ie, “barn door”) or deform the tower leg. Easy to install and only requires taking one wrench up the tower. Features our two pulley system (similar to round leg arms below) to prevent tangling pull ropes. All components are hot dip galvanized and come with hot dip galvanized hardware. Available in two varieties: Wire antenna arm as seen below, with two pulley system, OR combo model with clamps on end of arm to also hold a small vertical VHF/UHF antenna.
