I am looking fot the template or the bolt pattern for the tilt base plate made by rohn for the rohn 25? I want to pour the concrete for my tower and sink the bolts in and have it ready for when I get a tilt plate later.

Thanks,
AP
 

Rohn tilt plates are not constructed all that strong.
They actually recommend raising the tower WITHOUT
the antenna being mounted on it when using there
hinge plates. What good is that?
4 years ago i purchsed one of Rohns plates. But, was
afraid to use it after seeing how it was constructed.
Total waste of money in my mind. Sold it....LOL
That's why i had one built out of 1/2" steel...LOL
Others may have different opinions. Good Luck Rog!
 
that's is what i did fabricated my own tilt base i have a tee for a rohn 25 but the i added some more to it, 20ft. so i fabbed up a new H base out of 1in. by 4in SS bar stock and i have 1in SS all thread 5ft. anchor bolts in a 36x36x60 5000psi pier. you can get most specs of the manufacturers web sites. i have even fabbed my own rotor and bearing plates from there specs.
