Rohn GAC5855TOP Anchor Rod

Concrete-Embedded Guy Anchor Rod for ROHN Tower Systems
The ROHN GAC5855TOP is a 16-foot, heavy-duty guy anchor rod built for use with ROHN 25G, 45G, 55G, and 65G tower systems. Featuring an integrated 5-hole equalizer plate, this anchor rod supports either three or five down guy levels and is engineered for installation into a standard concrete anchor block. Its 1.25-inch diameter steel rod provides the necessary strength for high-tension installations where load reliability and structural safety are critical.

Supports Multi-Level Guy Wire Attachments with Equalized Load
The integrated 5-hole equalizer plate allows for the attachment of multiple guy wire levels in a single, organized layout. This configuration is ideal for tall towers requiring multiple guying points to stabilize the structure under various wind load conditions. Each hole on the plate serves as a precision mounting point, spreading stress evenly across the system and reducing the risk of load imbalance during tensioning.

Designed for Use with Eye-to-Jaw Turnbuckles
The equalizer plate configuration of the GAC5855TOP is optimized for use with eye-to-jaw turnbuckles, such as the ROHN R-3/8TBE&J. This design allows for a secure and straightforward guy wire connection that resists torque and uneven pull during operation. The plate’s symmetrical layout ensures that guy wires are aligned and stabilized across multiple directions—perfect for installations in high-wind or open-field locations.

Concrete Foundation Installation for Maximum Holding Power
This anchor rod is designed to be embedded into a concrete anchor block, providing permanent structural anchoring that resists shifting and uplift. The 16-foot rod length ensures deep placement into the foundation, increasing its grip and distributing force throughout the block. When installed properly, this rod is capable of handling up to 64,800 lbs of allowable load, making it suitable for both medium and high-stress tower installations.

Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel for Corrosion Resistance
To extend its service life, the GAC5855TOP is hot-dip galvanized, providing excellent protection against rust and corrosion. This finish is essential for outdoor installations exposed to the elements year-round, especially in coastal or humid regions. The galvanized surface matches ROHN tower standards, ensuring seamless visual and structural integration across all system components.

Compatible with ROHN Tower Lines and Industry Standard Hardware
This anchor rod works with the full range of ROHN tower series—25G, 45G, 55G, and 65G—making it a versatile option for professionals working across tower models. Its compatibility with standard guying hardware, including clamps, thimbles, and turnbuckles, means installers can build efficient and code-compliant systems without custom parts.

Ideal for Communication, Broadcast, and Infrastructure Projects
Engineers and tower crews use the GAC5855TOP for critical installations in wireless telecom, radio transmission, broadband infrastructure, and more. With a load capacity of 64,800 lbs and a durable galvanized finish, this anchor rod ensures that your guyed tower installation remains grounded and structurally stable—no matter the height or environmental stress.
