Yes, it is an ideal guy wire for TV antennas, masts and poles. Being a dielectric polyester monofilament it is non-conductive (lightning protection), does not interfere with the antenna signal , won't rust or stain the roof and withstands years of sun and rain. For domestic antenna guys we recommend 2.6–3 mm; for tall masts, 4–5 mm.
Yes. With an installation tension of 1% of the line length, AGROPET® maintains stable tension from −40 °C to +70 °C, without the thermal expansion of metal. Breaking loads range from 280 kg (2.6 mm) to 616 kg (5 mm).
Years without maintenance: the polyester is UV-stabilised and immune to rust, fertilisers, crop protection products and salt-laden air. At the end of its service life it is 100% recyclable.
