Anchor - Screw-In
Use these anchors to secure NRG TallTowers in normal clay soil without many rocks.
Details
Screw-in anchors are installed by hand using a cross bar (not included) to screw them into the earth like a corkscrew. Unlike a tent stake, these anchors are installed at an angle so that the eye of the anchor points toward the tower and the helix screws in away from the tower.
Made of galvanized steel, these anchors are corrosion-resistant and easy to install. They provide good holding power in a variety of soil types.
6” Screw-In Anchors are included in the following kits:
- (15/kit)
- 50m XHD NOW System (15/kit)
- 34m XHD NOW System (5/kit)
8” Screw-In Anchors are included in the following kits:
- 80m XHD NOW System (2/kit)
- Super 60m XHD NOW System (2/kit)
