I don’t think I have ever NOT had SS nuts seize on SS ubolts. From: Mathew Howard Sent: Friday, June 19, 2015 4:56 PM To: af Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Gtek Communications deploys PMP 450
I've had several of the SS nuts seize on the ePMP Force110's... which appear to be the exact same nuts as on the slightly-less-than-half a ton 3.65 sector I just put up. I would very much like to see Cambium switch to a different kind of nuts. On Fri, Jun 19, 2015 at 5:05 PM, Ken Hohhof <[email protected]> wrote: Have you actually experienced the SS nuts seizing? Maybe I’ve been lucky, but I have not had trouble with that even after years. I guess I should be putting anti-seize compound on them, but it’s so messy. Metric silicon bronze nuts look to be expensive, like in the $1 each range, to swap them out yourself. Which of the many nuts would you want to be silicon bronze? Just the 4 that hold it to the pipe? Or also all the ones involved in the elevation adjustment?

What I really wish Cambium would do, or talk Laird into doing, is replacing the nuts with silicon-bronze like LMG uses on their stuff. Or just go to galvanized. The stainless on stainless sucks. They're $500 antennas and I shouldn't have to go buy extra shit for them.

You get 4 of them together and they weigh a ton.
