I recently installed three SA1-24 24" sidearms, supporting Diamond X-200 style UHF/VHF antennas. The quality of the sidearms is above average, and and the price is very reasonable. Installation is simple and the supplied hardware is of high quality.

I have had three SA-1’s on the top of my 35’ tower with a GP-15 (voice) GP-3 (digi) and a Diamond D-130J discone (scanner & test) since last August. They came with the stainless locking hardware and are very light yet strong. I feel they would hold most if not all of the amateur verticals (Diamond, Comet etc.) available and the antenna would fail before the side arm. I would not put anything bigger or heavier than those that they claim it will handle. It is aluminum and designed for medium duty and I feel they do that well. The welding was superb but the machining and part alignment could have been a bit better. On a tower no one is going to see it and it didn’t affect the installation or the integrity of the product.
