Universal Aluminum Tower Question
 
Could anyone who owns one of these towers please measure the diameter the of
tubing leg for me? I am considering a purchase but need to know if it is
compatible with some presently owned hardware.
Thanks for your help,
Bob

It depends on which section you use. The sections are numbered by the
number of inches one each leg of the triangle. My base is 22 inches and
a 50 ft. tower. Let me know and I will measure. Excellent tower.

Bill, I know they're swaged, but you mean the legs are not the same diameter
tubing all the way up? If not, could you tell me for your 22 and 18 please?
Thanks for your trouble, Bob.

I measured 1.5 inches OD on the 22 inch base. Other sections are too
high to get to to measure and too much snow around to climb. I am not
positive but it sure seemed the legs are narrower on the smaller
sections. You could call Universal to find out for sure.

The legs are a bigger diameter depending on the section.
My base is a 26 inch leg to leg, and I have 80ft of it.
Not in the air yet.
