Metal Crossarm - L-Style - 6″ x 14 Gauge

The Metal Crossarm, L-Style, 6″ x 14 Gauge is an essential component for vineyard and horticultural management, providing a sturdy support system for plant wires. Designed to enhance air circulation and sunlight exposure for vines, this crossarm plays a vital role in optimizing the growth conditions throughout the growing cycle. Its robust construction and versatile design make it a practical choice for any grower looking to improve canopy management.

Key Features

• Durable Construction Made from high-quality 14 gauge plain steel, this crossarm is engineered for strength and longevity, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of outdoor use. The 14 gauge thickness provides ample support for plant wires, minimizing flexing and maintaining tension.
• L-Style Design The L-style configuration allows for effective management of vine growth. By extending out from the vertical post, the crossarm creates a wider canopy, facilitating better airflow and light penetration, which are crucial for healthy plant development.
• Versatile Length Options Available in various lengths including 6″, 8″, 10″, 12″, 14″, 16″, and 18″, growers can select the appropriate size based on the vigor of their vines and the specific requirements of their growing conditions.
• Adjustable Positioning The crossarm features one slot on each side and one notch on the bottom, providing flexibility for moving wires into different positions. This adjustability allows for customized management of the canopy, accommodating changes in plant growth throughout the season.
• Easy Installation Designed for straightforward attachment to T-posts or other vertical inline posts, the crossarm requires a U-bolt with two nuts (sold separately) for secure installation. This simplicity facilitates quick setup and adjustments as needed.
• Air and Light Circulation By broadening the canopy, the crossarm promotes effective sunlight exposure and air circulation among the vines, which can significantly enhance photosynthesis and reduce the risk of disease.
• Standard Industry Specifications Adhering to industry norms, the crossarm is produced without a protective coating. While this may result in some oxidation upon arrival, it is standard practice for materials intended for outdoor use.
• Lightweight Design Weighing only 0.3 lbs, this crossarm is easy to handle and install, making it a convenient choice for growers managing multiple rows of plants.
