GENERAL
During the years of our manufacturing many of our customers have had individual needs and requests why a
complete description of all the items would not fit in this information.
The items showed herein are those we hold as the most commonly ordered.
A forest of towers - a nice picture of what aluminium looks like in its best shapes - lattice construction.
Civilization needs communication. Most of us has come to be so familiarized with those Communication
Towers that we tend to not see them. The Internet is a large part of the communication where the information is
put into wires where towers hold up the communication points where wires cannot be used. What we are looking
at is great combination of items from older times in a beutiful combination with items from modern time. A
pleasure in itself.
A large amount of effort is put into the ability to let people communicate. The cellular phones represent a
very strong link between people of today. Not many will disagree. Still, in spite of the fact of communication
needs there is a swift wariness among some as the very picture of nature does not fully agree with a tower poking
up in the sky in the middle of an open land. Unfortunately we sometimes tend to blame the tower. ”Why kill the
piano player? He hasn’t made the piece.” A tower is a beautiful and its very reason for existing is even more
beautiful.

GENERAL
The famous ”Globe” in Stockholm was lit up during the
summer 2006. New LED technology made the entire building
bath in wonderful colours. Over 16000 colours were made
possible from some 40 constructions . All LED’s are mounted
on facilities manufactured by us.

GENERAL
Erecting high and slimmed towers may indeed become a hard
piece of work because of narrow vegetation, lack of a road and
even too turbolent winds for a helicopter.
Our tower model M38W has a special accessory by means
of a large specially constructed hinge
in stainless steel.
This way the M38W may be
equipped with hinges along the total
length. Making erecting a 60 m tower
less troublesome in hard places.

Antenna support consisting of a tower is solely represented as enormous constructions for cellular phone
base stations but small towers for short wave antennas. Picture shows a 12 metre mounting tower for a omni
directional communication antenna for low frequency bands. The Swedish Force of Defence has this kind of
antenna. With a supporting tower as the Vargarda M38W, of course.
The antenna is a Discone antenna that
goes all the way from ground to top level of the
construction type.
Main material in the antenna part is wire.
Aluminium may be somewhat
underestimated now and then. Even though the

by using this very light and strong material.
Regarding wireless communication towers aluminium has
been dominated by steel constructions. Often free standing
towers are not requested why aluminium towers are used instead
adding increased economy to site construction among others.

M25W
- 250mm
The most slimmed tower in our ordinary
line of products is the M25W. This is a
triangular tower with a 250 mm side.
A narrow base tower like this has its place
where space is limited and there it does a
wonderful work. Resulting in good value for
money making this choice a good one.
The M25W maintains unsupported at a
length of 6 metres when correctly installed even
in winds of 25 metres a second.
The top section may house a rotator and
will fit most of the models marketed. Top tubing
is let through a top plate bushing fitting tube
diameter of 50mm’s.

surroundings and being easily handled in
transportation, assembly and erection. Among our customers chosing the M25W one may find those having
planned long time duties of the tower as well as very short ones erected without a lot of efforts.
Normal section length is 3050 mm’s but we do supply other sizes of lengths as well, 6000mm as longest. In
short section lengths the M25W may reach a perfect solution in portable or mobile use. For example a 12 metre
tower may come packed in short and compact units having a length of less than a metre craving a transport
volume of some 100 litre’s only. Of course reusable.
Options available are in a lot. Container mounts, steel brackets and what ever you may find necessary. If we
don’t have it we make it. Please contact us for further information.

M38W
- 380mm
Our most ”common” tower in production the M38W has had the former designation ”Vargarda Standard
Tower” being manufactured and sold since the 1970’es. Still looking like the earliest ones the M38W has a total
delivered length of almost 100 kilometres at this date. No wonder
we have been calling it our standard don’t you think? The very
construction is as simple as genius. Low weight,
widely framed and at the same time very strong.
Because of the large amount of request
during the past 30 years the M38W has gotten
involved in a long series of different applications
where the demands have been strength
combined with the low mass.
This tower consists of three different parts
that differ on just a few points, the Top
Section, Middle Section and Lower Section.
The Top and Middle sections normally
have ladder steps on one side while the Lower
Section does not.
The Top section is normally supplied with
a top plate having a tubing let through for an
outer diameter of 50mm’s as well as a mounting
plate about 750 mm’s lower.
The Lower Section has hinges attached to
the foot part which in turn is attached to the
underlaying surface by three heavy bolts.

The different sections are put together by means of a bolt attachment. A joint coupling kit
consists of three coupling profiles and in total 24 bolts, washers and nuts. Tools needed are just a
couple of wrench keys. Fitting is extensive. The coupling joints are normally supplied fitted onto the
Middle Section and Top Section at the downward direction. This way only half of the joint bolt set
has to be attached to complete the joint and build the tower.
The Top Section may be supplied in different versions by request.
Top Section A - equipment mount plate for rotator and top tubing
Top Section B - equipment mount plate for non rotating top tubing
Top Section C - only top plate without equipment mount plate
In ordering the Top Section let us know what holes are necessary and we will
supply the equipment mount plate ready-to-go for customers needs. Ladder steps
will be supplied on one, two or all three sides of the section at request. Of course, the
ladder steps may as well be deselected.
The total building height of M38W depends on what amount of
the Middle Section is supplied. Whenever needed one or more
Middle Sections may be added to an existing tower installation. The
perfect fitness makes disassembly as well as reassembly an easy task
why adding sections at any point in time will be at a minimum of
effort. Ladder steps will be supplied on one, two or all three sides of
the section at request. Of course, the ladder steps may as well be
deselected.

Section
The Lower Section is to be mounted on a flat surface. Five
bolts in total including washers and nuts come with the section. Two
of them are M12x120 to be used for hinge attachment to the flat
surface underneath. Preferably wet
concrete. The three remaining are
M20x250 intended to be mount into
the same surface inside the triangle
foot part of the tower. These bolts
hold the section in place on th surface. If requested for a prefabricated
bolt form may be supplied, called
M38W-DOCK which is intended to
be sunk into wet concrete instead of
M38W-DOCK
the five individual bolts thus saving
time building the tower mounting block.
Another option is the M38W-STEELPLATE. This plate is
550x550x10 mm’s and carries the three foot holding M20x250 bolts
prewelded onto the plate. The hinge bolts are to be mounted in
prearranged positions as well. The plate has corner holes for easy
attachment to any surface or structure suitable. The M38WSTEELPLATE has a non corrosive finish.

M38W

Ability to whenever a need arise reshape an
existing tower installation is a strong argument in
modern wireless communication.
Sites are made to match what we all call
changeability and influence of new technology affecting
us. Time makes no change to the tower but to the need
of it. The kind of communication asked for changes
simultaneously as new technology.
Looking back in time the two-way-radio was a
big opportunity to human kind when it was introduced
during1960-70. Years after this technology extended
into something that was as usual as anything.
Communication towers for two-way-radios where
built rapidly all over the world. The 1990’ies represent
a time of new technology. The cellular phone was
made a common item to everyone. A new tower
building boom. Today the two-way-radio is not a big
issue while cellular has become usual to everyone.
While Internet has become wireless.
Such a travel makes it important to use what
already is built and ready to be reshaped and refitted.
The M38W is very well shaped
to be mounted to surfaces not withstanding heavy loads thanks to the low
mass of the tower itself.
To reduce the efforts of such an
installation the STEELPLATE may be
used preferably. When fixed in place
the tower is erected by use of the
attached hinges.
As an example an M38W
making a 12 metre tower weighs less
than 70 kg’s. Completely equipped for
common use the applied equipment in
and along the tower may result in some
200kg’s in total. Using the STEELPLATE this makes no more than 82
kg’s per square meter in total surface
pressure. Less than a humans foot.
This kind of installation has been

M38W -
380mm
Several foreign organisations have chosen the M38W because of the low
mass and the availability of the kit form as it almost eliminates the otherwise
extensive costs in transportation.
During the 30 years of M38W manufacturing and supply the tower has gotten
good use in a large amount of places in the world.
Wind Measurement with the M38W
Since the 1990’es the energy market has grown more and more towards wind
energy. Requests of low mass towers have increased. To achieve a good estimation
of the wind properties at a possible wind power site measurements need to be done
during a long period of time.
Measuring the wind is done a by using a horizontal pole holding the measuring
point at least 5 tower widths out from the tower to avoid wind turbulence. This fact
puts demands on a tower. A steel tower would manage this without hesitation but
economy and mass often set another direction of planning. Lowest cost possible is
requested for as well as strength. Because of these simple facts the M38W tower is
a premium choice.
Depending on the centre of gravity occurring in a slimmed tower compared to
a wider one the distance between the guying levels along the mast need to be
carefully set. By expertise and experience the M38W may be built to 100 metres
by using a specially designed lifting cage.
The M38W is delivered with ladder steps in case the build work is to be
accomplished by climbing while using a ginpole to lift each section into place. Build
by using a helicopter or crane are other ways. The lack of a constructed road to the
site of the tower for wind measurement may be an important fact to be overcome.
Hence using a lifting cage makes the initial cost of doing an estimation of future
economy well kept at a lowest.

KIT - A SOLUTION WITHOUT LIMITS
A tower wherever it is to be placed will need sufficient area upwards as well as around the base as one may
be well aware of. Easily forgotten is the transportation costs of the tower to the site where it is to be erected.
Normally a very high cost are included and a tremendous bulky transport facility is needed at the least.
The M38W is especially well suited for organisations having an immediate need of a minimum transport
volume. This fact is an extremely strong issue with the
M38W as being able to function as a tower within a
short time after the alarm clock starts sounding.
International organisations may demand a tower
storing place at a minimum of space and effort as well
as a maximum efficiency in transport dynamics.
As the M38W is designed with deep insight into
these needs each three metre tower section is supplied
in a tubular box only 85 millimetres thick and 3 metres
long.
In the same tubular box all necessary parts are
included. Even the tools if requested for.
A complete tower section delivered as a kit. The
A person who never before assembled a kit
package is tubular at an 85 mm’s thickness and 3 m
section may have to spend two or three hours to put

together an M38W section for the very first time.
transport volume.
Building up experience and routine those hours
will become all the time needed to fully assemble, let say, a 9-12 metre tower being 1-2 people.
Included in each kit is an assembly instruction. The tubular box may be reused to hold the disassembled
section if and when a tower is dismounted after use.
The M38W mainly consists of three different section types; Top- Middle and Lower Section. All delivered
in the same kind of tubular box.
Of course a complete tower also have some parts not possible to box in this kind of tubular thus packed in
a square box measuring 0,5x0,5x0,14 metres (0,035 cbm) easy to carry. Inside this box are the top plate, base
foot, guy wire attachment and the bolts needed for the base. Also other parts if requested for.
A kit may be stored away in any kind of place as long as the humidity is kept low. High humidity will not
affect the tower parts but the tubular box and the paper instruction. A packed kit will easily be handled in an
elevator to the intended level of storage.
In opposite to a ready assembled section a kit represents a slightly higher cost depending on package
arrangement but the big saving in transportation cost is the issue.

M38W
- 380mm
An option called a SLEIGH is available to the M38W.
This is a very simple and efficient way to extend the usage of an
existing small M38W tower or have it supplied along with the order
of a complete SLEIGH TOWER.
Using a SLEIGH is a very comfortable way to handle large or
small antenna systems or
measuring equipments, even large
spotlights or public speakers.
Equipment needing lots of
overhauling or service are easily
levelled up and down within just a
few minutes of winding a handle
all the way down to the ground at
the base level.
The upper part of the
SLEIGH is cranked up to the
top of the tower.
The handle is very easy to
use and time consumed for a
complete up
and down cycle
is short.
Guy wire eyes are mounted on the SLEIGH top.
Since this option was constructed by us in the
1990’es a great amount has been delivered to already
existing towers as well as newly installed.
At a complete delivery of SLEIGH and M38W
tower together the include parts are aside the very tower
and sleigh the steel wire of 5mm diameter, the pole keeping
the winch, the tower top keeping the wire rolls, base foot
roll and the safety lock with its wire.
Normally the SLEIGH cage is delivered assembled
supplied with the parts along.

M65W -
650mm
The M65W is a strong tower construction having a side of 0,65 metres. This tower version is
constructed to have a good stiffness still representing a low total weight. Well suited for wind measuring.
Due to the special construction the M65W is possible to climb in and easily built by using any lift
technique this thanks to having a very low mass of only 26 kg´s per three metre section or 8,6 kg´s per
metre.
Joining each section is easy using simple tools.

MT15W
- 15m telescopic tower
The MT15W telescopic tower is a three section
version intended for base installation.
When fully lowered total length is 5,9 metres to top
plate level. At fully erected the top plate is at 15 metres
above ground. The top section part is ready for top tubing
having a diameter of 50mm’s. The equipment or rotor plate is
0,75 metres below the top and represents a space able to
hold even very large rotators.
The MT15W has guying attachments at the top level of
each of the two highest sections.
In calm weather guying is not necessary.
High level of comfort is achieved in doing service and
maintenance to antennas or other equipment being top
mounted by tilting the lowered tower over its base part at a
hinge hight of less than 2 metres. Two heavy duty winches
are supplied with the MT15W. One for tilting the lowered
tower and the other for the telescopic function.
Our specially developed construction and profiles has a
shape making trailing along the corner legs working.
Thanks to the extremely low weight of the sections
because of the aluminium material the effort put in cranking is
at a minimum.
The equipped steel wires in the MT15W consists of
6x19 wires at a material standard of ISO2408. This wire is
capable of 1300 kg’s.
The telescoping part with the three sections weighs only
95 kg’s.
Of course we also make other version of telescoping
towers.

SPECIAL APPLICA
TIONS
APPLICATIONS
During the years we have often got invited to make special constructions that we always welcomed and
realized into shapes within the limits of reality.
The testing facility of Volvo Cars is place where a very special type of horizontally put very long lattice
construction were to travel in high velocity parallel to the ground. We made that real.
The Swedish Force of Command had a negative tower meaning it was mounted beneath the water surface. Isn’t that a negative height?
The tower at highest level was erected at 7500 metres above the sea level during a climbing expedition to
the Mount Everest and K11. In this particular case the kit system was the most sufficient solution as the entire
tower was carried from the last part of the road to the camp site.
Polar areas as well as tropical areas are also harbouring our products and are most probably still there.
Aluminium is a fantastic material and by using the correct alloy and by having it formed by a talented
producer the end user product is just as brilliant as the material itself! We are just the middle part of the natural
travel from the soil to the end user putting the items together just for you.
Did you know that aluminium is the most common metal on our planet? Well it is. Its just very well mixed
with everything else. Thanks to the fact that aluminium is not magnetically attracted it let itself to be retracted and
formed to shapes we all want to use in one way or the other.
For long distant communication or surveillance and safety.
Last but not least aluminium is reusable.
Just perfect isn’t it? Environmentally friendly.
