ROHN 55G Tower Sections & Concrete Embed Bases
Since there are various other Manufacturers of Towers and Tower accessories that copy the ROHN Tower design, if you are not sure of the manufacturer of your Tower, you can at least compare the actual measurements and design of yours to those found in the spec. sheets in the ROHN catalog section via the Link provided above to assure yourself that additional sections or parts will fit. We cannot make that determination for you as the ROHN clones are something we don't carry or otherwise represent in our Product line. All towers in the GT Series are constructed with high strength steel tubing and feature ROHN's exclusive Zig-Zag ® solid rod bracing to provide exceptional strength. All GT Series Towers are hot dip galvanized after fabrication. In this process, each section of the tower is totally immersed in molten zinc, allowing every square inch of the tower, inside and out, to be completely covered. Hot dip galvanizing protects all points of welding and construction against rust and corrosion while providing an attractive finish.
The 55G is a true multi-use structure that provides excellent strength for applications up to 400´. It´s offered with either heavy steel tube or solid steel rod legs to satisfy a wide variety of needs under varied conditions. When properly installed, the standard tower will support the loads shown on various guyed and self-supporting information sheets in the ROHN catalog.
Most Restrictions Allow for 50 feet of Height without the Necessity of Guy Wires, Anchors or Braces. However, No Tower is self supporting during construction! Always use temporary guys on the top most section, and install permanent guy wires as soon as a guy point height is reached.
