This makes it hard to drive a ground rod in. This rod is steel and has a pointed tip which allowed it to be driven the full length. Plus it has a very hard plate of copper on the surface ans surface conductivity is what counts for electricity. I used a heavy post driver to pound it in, and then finished off with a 3-pound sledge hammer. Its true that it is only 4 feet long, but according to my ham radio books, another rod driven in at 4 feet distance away should pretty well equal a single 8 foot rod. Review: Great product exactly as to specs. - Exactly as described. It is a STEEL ROD with VERY THICK copper plating! Copper alone is way to soft for a ground rod that has to be DRIVEN into the ground. ERICO does manufacture the best products to exacting standards. Great value for the cost! ## Features - ERICO 4FT 5/8IN COPPER GROUND ROD 615840UPC ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000HEKUDG | | Action | Fast | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #676,535 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #228 in Electrical Grounding Bars | | Brand | Erico | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (94) | | Date First Available | January 8, 2007 | | Grip Type | Either 'Full Wells', 'Pistol', or 'Cigar' | | Handle Material | Cork | | Included Components | electrical-grounding-bars | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 3.4 pounds | | Item model number | 615840UPC | | Line Weight | 180 pounds | | Manufacturer | ERICO | | Material | Plastic | | Model Name | 615840UPC | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | 615840UPC | | Product Dimensions | 49 x 6 x 6 inches | | Rod Length | 4 Feet | | Size | Pack of 1 | | Tension Level | 80,000 psi | | UPC | 783961175566 782856446361 735090357610 | | Warranty Description | Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Erico - **Item Weight:** 3.4 Pounds - **Material:** Plastic - **Model Name:** 615840UPC - **Number of Pieces:** 1 ## Images ![Erico 615840UPC Ground Rod - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/312WufRMtXL.jpg) ![Erico 615840UPC Ground Rod - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51vJqHI9DqL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the diameter?** A: The one I got was less than 1/2 inch in diameter. A 1/2 inch ground clamp would not fit. **Q: 2” thick? As listed in the product factoid box. What? How about stating the overall length as well.** A: Mine Has a sticker on it stating. 5/8 inch thick by 4 feet long **Q: will this work on cb antenna ground on top of house if so were do you attach to on antenna my antenna doesnt seem to have a place for it help anyone?** A: Yes. A 8’ ground copper clad rod is a 8’ copper clad ground rod. NEC code requires ground rods to be 8a’ so don’t buy/use 4’ rods. Also know NEC Code REQUIRES any ground rods for whatever purpose, including antenna’s so also have a #6 gauge wire run back to the main common house electrical ground/ bond point (usually where the utility power, telco, and CATV are grounded. Reasons for this are too complicated to detail here, but very important to follow because of possible fire/ shock issues. Call any licensed local Electrican for help. **Q: is there a permanent certification code marked at the top of the rod?** A: no markings ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lightning rod for ham radios. *by H***X on January 22, 2016* My yard has lots rocks just beneath the the surface.

It is a STEEL ROD with VERY THICK copper plating! Copper alone is way to soft for a ground rod that has to be DRIVEN into the ground. ERICO does manufacture the best products to exacting standards. Great value for the cost! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a really great real copper grounding rod! *by C***L on September 24, 2012* I found this grounding rod after a three hour search marathon on Amazon's Search Engine. It paid off though as I found this Erico grounding rod. It came in about 7-10 days just as the seller said it would. I was worried it wouldn't be made of real copper or it would just be a flimsy hollow copper piping. It came in and I was so impressed and happy with it that I wish I could give it 6 stars. This grounding rod seems to be all copper, it definitely has alot of weight to it! It is sized exactly as described. Both ends were pointed and I drove it into the ground using my hammer. It was not hard to do so. I attached the connector that was paired with it by Amazon, and it worked well, I ran 8 Gauge wire to it and clamped it down. I am using it as a grounding rod for my solar panel and batteries system. It really just feels perfectly right. My system is properly earthed, and the pricing on this ground rod was very good. I can't recommend this item highly enough. Definitely buy it. I will get myself another one just to have it around. Just in case they decide to stop making them! ## Frequently Bought Together - Erico 615840UPC Ground Rod - Sigma Electric ProConnex 41309 Ground Clamp 1/2 to 1-Inch, 1-Pack - Copper Ground Rod Clamp, Great for 1/2”- 5/8’’ Grounding Rods (2, CP58 (1/2''-5/8'')) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/15427113-erico-615840upc-ground-rod](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/15427113-erico-615840upc-ground-rod) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
