Aluminium Tapered
Columns
Tapered columns are designed
to add visual interest and as
an alternative to conventional
stepped designs
These columns are in extruded series
6000 aluminium alloy, finished to a
high standard. This finish is protected by
individual wrapping on each column to
prevent transit damage.
Enhanced weight/windage capacity is
achieved by the construction technique
which uses a double thickness form
at the lower end. Root sections are
thermoplastic coated to give protection
against corrosive elements.
Cable entry below ground, has the
entry lined with a plastic coating to
avoid chafing of the cable. Inside the
column is a hardwood back board with
adjustable vertical position, for mounting
cable termination and isolation switches.
Earth studs are included, one inside the
column base, the other on the door.
The flush mounting door is secured
by two locks, positioned at top and
bottom of the door. The key format
makes unauthorised entry extremely
difficult. The standard finish is brushed
aluminium.
