Aluminium Tubular
Columns
Stepped columns are drawn from
a single tube, with no welded
joints. Giving enhanced carrying
capacity, as well as a smoother
line to the column
• The upper shaft is constant
regardless of the top spigot
diameter
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.
