Spreader base for military 48 inch long fiberglass and aluminum mast sections. This item can be used as a cheap easy base for all 48" fiberglass and aluminum mast sections. This item was originally used to hold up camo netting not as a base. I have had requests for these as a base so here they are. You get 5 battens and one center nut. We have even sold these and other mast sections along with my tripods, guy rings and other accessories to several different U.S. Government agencies!! We are proud to say they are also repeat customers!!!
