Special Wire Holders



The secret to the LB Quad is the special wire holders that allow the welding wire to move freely around the spreaders in high winds. This prevents the wires from breaking and also allows the wire to be easily tensioned correctly. The 5 band 2 ele quad requires 40 of these special wire holders. Apparently they are made out of piece parts from hydraulic brake assemblies. A very unique and I must say, outstanding idea for holding the wires in place.

Hi Franklin, thank you so much for posting the information on the Lightning Bolt quad! It's very interesting to see how you installed it. Some time back I bought the 4 element version second hand and I'm planning to put it up next summer. Best 73 William ON5WM
