Force 12, Inc.
Low Profile Towers & Trailers
These low profile towers are the answer for: Commercial, Mobile and Portable operations
The towers are made of high quality, aluminum square tubing and delrin slides for smooth operation. The pulleys are commercial grade and the cables are aircraft quality. All pulley frames are welded to the sections. There is an internal safety, so the tower cannot be raised past the upper limit. The top plate is standard for antenna rotators, pre-drilled for both popular bolt patterns. The top plate can be made for any purpose, such as cameras and radar units. LPT's are available in a variety of sizes to fit most every need. Custom heights and powder coating are optional.
Towers must be bracketed (supplied) to house or vehicle, or guyed using cable / rope or optional rigid guys. Various bases are available. Worm-drive winch is standard and can be run with a cordless drill using the provided loop and hook.
