A special tower mount pad fitting with a base only 2†in diameter machined from solid 6061 T6 billet. The pin is sized for 1†Schd 40 pipe (1.35†o.d. – 1.084†i.d.). The pin may be permanently installed in pipe with 2 part epoxy and stainless set screws, or may be welded in place.
This fitting can be used where there is insufficient mounting area for our standard base. These fittings are all carefully machined bright dip anodized to a marine grade standard. The mounting vase is 2†in diameter and has two countersunk mounting holes for 1/4-20 oval or flat head mounting bolts. The matching back up plate is 3 1/2†in diameter and is pre-drilled for the mounting bolts. Backing plates may be trimmed to fit into a smaller area if required. The pin connector which fits into 1†Schd. 40 pipe is secured to the mounting pad with a 3/8†stainless allen bolt. Nylon washers between the female mounting pad and the male pin eliminate metal to metal contact in the fitting which can cause oxide staining and noise.
