Split Element Insulators are designed to fit between two pieces 0.500 in. ID. aluminum tubing or (0.625 in. OD, 0.058 in. Wall) that are being used for the for center mounting portion of a split driven element. When building a Yagi or rotatable dipole an insulated and split driven element is required, so these Split Element Insulators are perfect for use with the Insulated Boom-to-Element Bracket.They allow the element to be securely clamped without crushing the tube. In Yagi applications, split element insulators allow use of Hairpin Matching Systems.
These insulators are manufactured from solid fiberglass, UV-inhibited material for maximum durability
