Shown in the large photo at left, the final step in construction of New York’s Freedom Tower was the installation of a 408 ft. antenna mast, anchored by four guy assemblies, each consisting of two 90 ft. long x 5 in. diameter synthetic cables.
Prior to installation of the guys, Yarbrough Cable in Memphis, TN load tested each cable to 400 tons—inset photo at left—cycling the load force 10 times for each cable between no load and 800,000 lbs.

The open body design of Yarbrough’s 1500 ton test machine permits quick access and facilitates rapid connect and disconnect of assemblies to be tested...ensuring quick turn- around for customers. Smaller test machines of 50 and 175 ton capacities are also available at our Memphis location. Testing capabilities at Yarbrough branch locations have recently been upgraded with new test machines of 100 metric ton capacity. All Yarbrough test machines are calibrated in accordance with ASTM E4 standards, traceable to NIST.
