Type 73 Sectional Mast

Type 73 masts have served military forces around the world since the 1970's and set the standard for a modular mast system up to 30 metres in height, lifting headloads of up to 90kgs at 8 metres. The mast sections have an outside diameter of 4 inches and are raised one at a time through the leg mounted mast guide box using the failsafe hoist and cross pin, giving the operator complete peace of mind. Tensioning of guys is controlled by the guy controllers keeping the mast vertical and under tension at all times.
