All,
In 1998 we replaced a 1955 1,000' Stainless Tower. It was located in
Lantana, Florida - probably 15 miles of so from the Atlantic Ocean.
We did paint the tower often but never did any maintenance on the guy wire
hardware.
The tower used galvanized hardware. The hardware on the tower and guy wires
were original.
Our tower maintenance company did use a penetration lubricate before they
adjusted guy tensions.
We had the tensions checked during the annual inspection; But only adjusted
a couple times in the 35 years I was there.

Re: "Rohn tower hardware is hot dipped galvanized steel. I'd take their
knowledge over any "tower guy" or any other person for that matter
