APAC's modular guyed galvanised steel lattice towers are manufactured locally in Queensland in 189 kg, 6.3 m sections, permitting comfortable handling during transport and assembly. The GL450 module is a stackable triangular design, engineered to tower heights of up to 63.45 metres in Wind Region C (8 sections).
Unique to APAC's GL series, the tower's 20 mm internal webbing is pressed from a single length of 20 mm steel reo, achieving a number of manufacturing efficiencies while maintaining a high degree of structural integrity.
The series' 450 mm face width provides excellent shear and torsional stiffness, necessary for many telecom applications. Fully-welded and press galvanised steel construction ensures the system can still be delivered at a very low price point, but with minimal maintenance over its working life of 25 years - providing a superior total-cost-of-ownership.
As pricing depends on footing options and a range of supplied extras, this product is strictly POA.
Recommended Use
GL450 is a hard-wearing tower system designed for economy and survivability. With a low deflection design, the tower can support heavy loading of ancillaries and supports two simultaneous climbers.
GL450 towers are a triangle-based (three-leg) guyed design, selected for its low production cost, short leadtime, and maximum durability in the extreme weather conditions our country faces. The tower can be manufactured in a galvanised finish, or supplied painted in aircraft colouring, or high visibility for mining applications.
