Helical Dead-ends, installed at the top, the breaker and the anchor, provide today's most effective method for securing guy strand. This unique, one-piece dead-end is neat in appearance and free from bolts or high stress holding devices.
Dead-ends are made of the same material as the strand to which they are applied. They should be used on hardware that is held in a fixed position. The fitting should not be allowed to rotate or spin about the axis of the strand. They should not be used as tools including come-alongs, pulling-in grips, etc.
