DXE-RADW  - 500K or 1000K  Radial Wire Kits and Components

 

To achieve optimal performance with a ground-mounted vertical, install as many radials as possible. These bulk radial wire kits 
use insulated wire that is UV resistant, hard to see and lays down easily, unlike the wire that is commonly available at the big box 
stores. It will last much longer in contact with soil than bare wire. 
The DXE-RADW- 500K or 1000K kit provide everything you will need to build the perfect radial system!

the big box stores. It will last much longer in contact with soil than bare wire.  The biodegradable anchors allow easy 
installation of radial wires, and will degrade and disappear in a year or so when they are no longer needed.
