OK. Bob gets flamed......
AUGH!!!!!
Not this thread again! Freakin magnets???? Come on guys!!
Does anyone consider what would happen if someone used these mounts for an
anchorage point while working on a tank?? And please dont say that it is
obvious and no one would do it because nothing is obvious to everyone.
It would be obvious to clip in and have 100 % tie off but 2 guys have died
so far this year after falling from towers with their harnesses in tact.
My position is do it right or dont do it

We are going to be mounting Panel Sector antennas to 2 Water Towers. One
tower is ideal with a rail that has been designed for pipe mounting. The
other is not so kind. It simply has a ladder up the side and over the
top,
no catwalk. We were thinking about using one of those 170 lbs. Water
Tower
mounts. This means we either have to get a welder up there to weld the
plates or come up with an industrial epoxy solution.
I have successfully used magnets on a couple of towers for 2 years now...
I don't completely trust them, so I also run a safety cable around the
mast
and anchor it to a solid projection on the tower so that if the magnets
did
turn loose, the mast wouldn't hit the ground, but in two years, and
through
several thunderstorms and pretty good winds, the magnets haven't shifted
a bit that I can see.
