Wire Antenna Insulators
DXE-UWA-END-KIT
Dipole Wires and End Insulators
DX Engineering Wire Antenna End Insulators are patented (US Patent No. D534,905) insulators featuring a unique serpentine wire grip for DX Engineering's insulated antenna wire or other wire used for making dipole antennas. The End Insulators also are used with DX Engineering’s high strength, high power 300 ohm ladder line used for a folded dipole. The serpentine wire grip and loop is strong enough to support the antenna wires with no soldering of the wire required. This allows for fast and easy field adjustments of antenna length. The DXE-UWA-END-KIT includes eight of these unique insulators.
The End Insulators are installed at the far ends of the dipole wires. One on each end. Route the dipole wire in a serpentine manner as shown.
Note the wire enters the End Insulator at the cupped area.
Once tuning is completed at low power, and the dipole leg wires are trimmed to length you can add an extra tuck in the wire end as shown below to provide even more gripping power on the dipole wires. Wrapping or soldering of the wires is not required.

Attaching Rope to the End Insulators
Using DX Engineering Double-braided Polyester Rope SYN-DBR, the rope is secured to the End Insulators using a non-slip knot. The rope hole (diameter) on the end insulators are 0.34".
One suggestion for attaching the rope to the End Insulators is shown below. The ends of the rope should be cauterized with a small flame to prevent the rope braid from fraying.
