I have an Arrow four element 6 meter antenna that sat upon my tower for a
few years and was still in great shape when it came down.

It did suffer a broken element right at the boom, from a hawk sitting on
the end of the element.

I was able to order a replacement element at a reasonable cost and had
very little trouble removing the threaded part that remained in the boom.

I am very happy with the construction and performance!
