The standard concrete lag bolts are about 3/8 inch in diameter, but they could be even smaller.
I'm not sure about the length. I'm not near the mounting; it's in a different state. Sorry.
I don't have calipers, so it could be slightly more or less than 2 inches, depending on their manufacturing tolerance.
It claims to be a direct TV pole mount, but I've never seen one before. So I'd say it's exactly what the ad says. It has a lot of weight to it.
Selected User Reviews For DIRECTV New Foot MAST Wall & ROOF Mount 2" OD SLIMELINE HD Dish Antenna
I found another unit on the left on the internet called EXTMAST that measures about 34 inches and was too short. Although the box says 39 inches, the item is only 5 inches tall. I couldn't find any trustworthy measurements, so I'm sharing them.
Simply double-check that the bracket that attaches to the pole has the proper diameter.
The mast does its job, but it lacks the necessary bolts. It will take a total of 8 bolts to complete this project. 4 for pivot control (5/16"x18 X 1") and 4 for wall mounting (5/16" lag bolt with washer 1 1/2" or 2"). There were only two of these in the package! I understand not including the lag bolts because each installation will be different, but not including all four of the pivot control bolts is absurd. I could have returned it because it was "not as advertised," but I needed it right away and had to dash to the local hardware store to pick up two more 5/16"x18" X 1" bolts and lock washers. Boo. br>br>NEW ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - I'm going to give it a one-star rating right now. After purchasing the missing hardware and mounting the mast, I attempted to make it work. It quickly became clear that this would not work for a modern, oblong HD dish. The arm isn't long enough to separate the dish from the wall on which it's mounted. For satellite alignment, the dish couldn't freely rotate. It might work if you're mounting on a wall with the dish almost parallel to the wall. However, if you need to rotate the dish to make it more perpendicular to the wall, do so. This isn't going to be a good idea. I was attempting to connect it to a DirecTV SlimLine3 set-top box.
In the vicinity of salt water and sprinkler systems; They don't last very long.
Shipper of high quality. Authentic item.
I knew that if we got ice this winter, my service pole would be broken, and that was something I couldn't have! This was an excellent solution! I did have to drill a hole for a bolt to go through, but that was no problem.
Everything is in order.
The purpose of this was to mount a point-to-point bridge antenna. It was ideal to mount the antenna on the backside of the resort hotel, where it would be almost invisible to guests while still being easily positionable. Easily transmit guest WiFi from one end of the property to the other.
