Not solid copper rod but sturdy.
I used this rod to ground a metal outbuilding pergola. The rod withstands a good pounding which helpsIn hard soil. The copper plating is kinda thin so it remains to be seen if it holds up. For the price it is good.

Grounding kit
We installed this for our pool as a grounding kit for the pump and motor. Easy install and hopefully will save our pool pump if it gets hit by lighting

Grounding OTA antenna vs. Lightening
While you may not think you need it, if you experience a lightening strike, having a grounded point or not will convince you otherwise,Takes only a few minutes to install. DISH installed one years ago and it deteriorated. Used the existing ground wire to attach the grounding spike and we are now protected. (hopefully)I'm fairly confident that the spike is not pure copper, but rather a coated metal. Still having this in place or nothing provides some consolidation.Time will tell

Quite strong and easy to pound into the ground
This is a copper coated lightning rod. I presume it's copper over steel, since it's so strong. An 8lb sledge hammer had no trouble slowly pounding it into the ground.For some reason, the screw and bracket to attach the grounding wire are a couple inches from the end, and there's no way to move it closer.I was able to tighten the screw quite securely—so there's little chance it could get stripped. After attaching a #10 solid copper wire and tightening it very securely, I covered it in a corrosion-resistant calk, then pounded it further into the ground. I suppose I could dig around it to remove the wire in the future, but can't imagine why I would want to do that. This ground rod will spend the rest of my life buried deep next to my home, permanently grounding my little TV antenna. It's suggested to also ground the mast, but my mast is only a foot long and bolted to the side of my home, so I'm not going to bother. If someone can give me a valid reason to ground that, I'll consider it. But there are many other pieces of metal sticking out of the top of my home, like attic venting, which I doubt are grounded, so I'm not particularly worried.
