Description

- Hulk Earth Anchors
- Wire Rope
- Turnbuckles
- Rope Grips
- Tree Collars
This pre-packaged solution allows for installations that provide a buying system with a holding capacity and neatness of appearance far superior to stakes. Installation instructions are included in every kit and can be easily carried out without the need of trained labour.
Application
Hulk Earth Anchors are installed in 3 simple steps:
- The Hulk Earth Anchor is driven into the ground with a re-useable Hulk Smasher Rod. This driving process can be done with a hand held hammer or commercially available powered hammering equipment.
- Once the HULK Earth Anchor is driven to the required depth remove the Hulk Smasher Rod.
- An upward pull on the anchor tendon rotates the Hulk Earth Anchor head locking it into position
Each of the three pre-assembled guy anchors are installed equally spaced around the tree. The loose end of the wire rope is placed around the tree stem using the tree collar for added protection. The system is secured with the included wire rope grips. For trees with a stem diameter larger than 75mm, the kit includes a turnbuckle to bring the guy into tension in order to prevent unwanted movement.
