Automatic Dead-Ends, Guy Anchors & Guy Markers

Automatic Dead End Connector

MacLean Power Systems has not allowed the #5202 or #5204 to be used on ropes courses for several years.

Now, Hubbell Power Systems/Fargo GDE5202 for 3/8" cable and the GDE5204 for 1/2" cable are no longer allowed to be used on ropes courses.

Please see this notice from Hubbell.

We still have a few 3/8" Automatic Dead Ends in stock if you need them for an application other than a ropes course.

$27.00 each 3/8" while supplies last

Guy Marker or Guy Guard

Guy Markers (Guy Guards) are made of high impact UV stabilized plastic and provides durable, high impact, protection for exposed utility pole guy wires, dead end fittings, and anchor rods.

One end is fitted with a stainless steel clamp and bolt for attachment.

1-1/2" Diameter X 95" Long

We have cut down the 8' Guy Guard to 95" to get around the oversize package surcharge added by UPS.

Please call (800)845-5692 for volume discount on more than 1 case.

No-Wrench Ground Guy Anchor

Hot Dip Galvanized

Forged-eye No-Wrench screw anchors are designed to be installed either manually or with power driven equipment. Used to anchor guy cables to the ground. Holding strength varies depending on soil conditions, installlation procedures and alignment. See the chart below.

For small jobs, like the bottom of a backyard Cargo Net we have added a 1/2" X 30" Rod with a 3" Helix.

Part No.	Description	Helix Dia.	Rod Dia. & Length	Holding Capacity-(lbs) vs Soil Class
				Class 5	Class 6	Class 7
D290	Tripleye®	4"	3/4"x 54"	4500	3000	1500
D290B	Tripleye®	6"	3/4"x 66"	6500	5000	2500
D290C	Tripleye®	8"	1" x 66"	11000	9000	6000
D290D	Tripleye®	10"	1¼"x66"	13000	10000	7000

*Note: If hand installed, holding capacity may be reduced by as much as 10% to 20%. Capacity ratings apply to properly installed anchors only. Failure to install within 5° of alignment with the guy load will significantly lower strength.*RUS Accepted.
