Installation and durability
Bolt the base down through the corner holes for a semi-permanent point, or load the flat section with sandbags for a freestanding setup that can be moved between sites. The centre tube clamps around a GS6 telescopic upright or crossbar, and the base can be used in place of, or alongside, our water-filled plastic bases. Speccing for a full site or framework order?
