I install home TV antenna systems and use it for antenna mast. The swedge end is perfect to put two pieces together and if I need a five footer I just cut one in half. Next time I need another it's ready and I put it on the bottom and use a self tapping screw to to secure the two together. Plus they are less cost the actual mast pipe so my profit margin is greater or I can pass the savings on to the customer.

The 1-3/8 top rail tubing was just what I needed to complete bracing on my hoop house. I used the ten and half foot sections together to make twenty one feet and did cross bracing between the twenty eight feet wide bows. This strengthen the 15 feet high center arches and still allow me access with my large tractor inside the 3000 sq ft structure. They were easily connected with Tek screws. I purchased more than thirty sections and plan to build more structures exclusively with these top rails.

Hand Rail and beyond
I used this rail for a hand rail on a 5 step set I built for my sons' patio area. I had purchased the wood the day before, cut and assembled the steps. Finding there are no preset stair hand rails, I used this Galvanized Top rail along with Galvanized bolts to hold it in place.
The whole rail was then bolted into the wooden step frame along and under the bottom.
Sold as an accessory to Mainstreet Aluminum Fence's Puppy Guard add on panels, the puppy guard add on strip is designed for use in fences with picket bottoms. Installing the strip below the bottom rail decreases the space for dogs who like burrow under the fence. The strips are protected with Armour Guard: a durable powder coated finish, relieving your worries of chipping or cracking paint. The strip may be installed at an angle for sloping ground, as well. (2) 34.75 in. strips installed adjacently make up the 69.5 in. length between posts.
Everbilt 170 ft. 9-Gauge Metal Tension Wire is a necessary requirement for a secure chain link fence. When properly installed, it will help keep anything from pushing under the bottom of the fence including people, pets, livestock and sporting balls. The Everbilt Galvanized Tension Wire will resist weathering and rust and increase longevity. This galvanized coating makes the fittings perfect for outdoor and long-term use. The chain link fence tension wire stretches to 170 linear feet. The tensile of this wire is softer to allow for easier installation, while the 9-Gauge steel provides maximum strength to complete the job.
Chain link post installation is a snap with a post anchors. Drive posts in plumb and slide on an anchor before stretching chain link fabric. Pound anchor into ground slightly below surface.
This drive gate kit is used for the installation of your chain link fence gate project. It includes the frames, post hinges, bolts and nuts you will need to complete the installation of the drive gate. It is packaged for convenience and galvanized for added durability and weather resistance.
