Weatherproof cable glands, for large RG8 and smaller RG58/8x cables. Note: Cables need to be fed through BEFORE adding connectors. Cable glands are particularly useful in maintaining weatherproofness when circumstances necessitate feeding cables in through side or top of box. For standard bottom fed cables, regular grommets are adequate. Cable glands are black in color.
Keyed lock for all boxes.
Copper split bolt for connecting two 4 gauge copper ground wires.
NEW! Conduit install kit for entrance panel. Comes with inside bushing, locknut, male adaptor and 18” of 1.5” ID PVC conduit. Requires cutting conduit and terminating on the indoor side. Other sizes also available, email me for details Chris at KF7P dot com.
NEW! Penetrox-A anti-oxidant connection grease. For all aluminum to aluminum and aluminum to copper connections. Prevents oxidation, corrosion and improves conductivity between arrestors and copper (or aluminum) sheet. Also great for antenna element construction. Available in 2oz. and 8 oz. containers.
Finally a sturdy enclosure for arrestors and switching made specifically for hams! Boxes are hand crafted one at a time and customized for your specific needs. Boxes are made from galvanized steel or aluminum, have grommets in bottom for cable entrance, and a .062” sturdy aluminum plate mounted inside for your arrestors. They can be mounted on an exterior wall (cables pass through back of box and into house), or can be mounted at base of tower (cables enter and exit box on bottom). Lid has gasket to keep water out and thumb screw hold down. Grommets are large enough for PL259’s allowing easy addition or changing of your cables at a later date. A slot in bottom allows for flat copper grounding strap to exit, bound for your ground rod(s). Powder coating also available in a variety of colors. Custom sizes and needs will be met with a smile; email me with your ideas! Chris at KF7P dot com.
I have discontinued the lock hasps in favor of a keyed lock (see picture below right). This gives a professional appearance and provides better security. We also stock and install ALPHA DELTA and MORGAN MANUFACTURING surge protectors in our boxes! Order both at same time and receive your box with surge protectors installed and ready for coax!
To order: Select box size below, with desired options. Use email or “comments” section at checkout to specify paint color, and if a 2” hole in back of box is wanted for cable routing through wall. Chris at KF7P dot com.
