$98.48$376.47 AUD excl gst

Add your chosen number of Trellis Cable wires to your Cocoon Tunnel or other structure. We recommend a maximum of 4 kits per Cocoon.
Trellis cable kits for Cocoon Tunnels provide a single stainless steel cable that spans the length of your tunnel, attaching to the tunnel ends with the assistance of Brace Bands.
Two options for attachment are provided: 1. Attach to end hoops, use with overhead hangers or 2. Attach to end hoop door header pole or cross bracing trellis poles, use by resting over the top of cross bracing trellis poles.

This option does not use hangers, instead the Trellis Cable Kit will be supported by existing cross bracing trellis poles and attached at either end by 35mm Brace Bands to the end hoop door header pole or cross bracing trellis pole. NOTE: To avoid the header pole being pulled inwards from crop weight we recommend using our telescopic pole diagonally by attaching from the centre of the header pole on the last hoop, upwards and inwards to the centre purlin pole just before it intersects with the 2nd hoop, (see image).
