DX Engineering Type 6063-T832 drawn - not extruded - HIGH STRENGTH aluminum tubing in 3 foot and 6 foot
lengths. Rugged aluminum alloy 6063 is most commonly used for seamless structural tube and pipe. It is popular in
structural use for both its high strength and great, long lasting appearance. Alloy 6063 provides great resistance to
general corrosion, including resistance to stress-corrosion cracking. With excellent surface appearance, 6063 is the
best alloy for high strength, long lasting antenna applications.

DXE-VA-BASE - Vertical Antenna Tilt Base Assembly, Heavy Duty
For heavy duty applications, the
DXE-VA-BASE
Insulated Vertical Antenna Base with its supplied laser cut stainless steel Tilt Base,
and complete stainless steel hardware package is intended to support a 2 inch OD antenna base section in a vertical
position and to allow tilting for easy maintenance or tuning. The
DXE-VA-BASE
is designed for vertical antennas
that exceed 30-35 feet. The
DXE-VA-BASE
consists of a unique reinforced fiberglass insulating channel which has
twice the strength of commonly used nylon and other insulating materials. It is fastened with stainless steel hardware
to a rugged 3/16 inch thick stainless steel laser cut Tilt Base. With a DX Engineering Tilt Base, operators can raise or
lower their vertical antenna in seconds while leaving the base plate securely attached to the mounting pipe or post.
One person can service the antenna. No more climbing ladders or removing brackets. Easily make repairs, tune your
vertical or lay your antenna down before bad weather hits. The Tilt Base may be bolted to a secure flat mounting
surface, or to the recommended galvanized steel mounting pipe described in the installation instructions with two
optional
DXE-VE-BASE - Vertical Antenna Fixed Base Assembly

height will exceed 30-35 feet, the DXE-VA-BASE with its easy tilt-over mounting plate is recommended for ease of
installation and lowering.
The DXE-VE-BASE consists of a unique reinforced fiberglass insulating channel which has twice the strength of
commonly used nylon and other insulating materials. It is fastened with stainless steel hardware to a rugged 1/4 inch
thick aluminum mounting plate. The aluminum mounting plate may be bolted to a secure flat mounting surface, or to
the recommended galvanized steel mounting pipe (up to 1-3/4" O.D.) described in the installation instructions with two
optional
V-Saddle clamps. The tilt-over feature may be subsequently added by ordering the
Stainless Steel Tilt Base Assembly.
