Questions & Answers
This unit was created with a flat roof in mind. There are some other options for a pitched roof.
It will be covered by a 2" EMT. Drill the EMT and use self-tapping screws or bolts to secure the welded nuts.
It does not, in fact. You should place a rubber pad underneath it, and the rubber should resemble a tire more than anything else.
Although I've never used or installed Starlink, the antenna can be attached to the pole with a 1 1/2 " or 2" diameter.
Selected User Reviews For Non - Penetrating Roof Mount 2 - Inch for satellite dish
This was used instead of a roof to mount a 26' vertical HAM antenna on the ground. With 10 - The frame has 32 concrete blocks on it, making it completely solid and allowing the antenna to be easily managed. Because I couldn't bury a standard support post due to a rock base 18" under the antenna site, I had to resort to a surface mount. Standard 4 x 8 x 16 solid concrete blocks do not fit perfectly because the mount is square. It can fit eight people flat and two people on their sides. 8 would have fit nicely if the base had been 4" shorter. It won't last indefinitely if left on the ground, but it should last several years.
The shipping was actually faster than I expected and arrived about three days ahead of schedule; the instructions are fine, but the bolts are half inch, so if you have 2 1/2 inch wrenches, you'll be fine; and I'll be installing my dish later today.
This stand was built on top of 2x6s with four cinder blocks on top of that. After that, I put up an 8-foot mast with a 60-mile-range antenna. Since it was installed, nothing has moved or budged. We've had a few wind storms, but everything is still working as it should.
On a flat roof, this is a good way to get a movable antenna mount for OTA TV or radio reception. Because the wind loads at the top are magnified by the lever-action, be sure to provide adequate ballast on the base, taking into account the mass and height of the antenna itself. Also, make sure the roof's tolerable maximum load per square foot is well above the ballast and mount you're adding. br>br>If your roof isn't flat or nearly so, don't use this mount. Consider the possibility of an earthquake. br>br>What are the advantages of using a movable antenna mount? For one thing, if your roof has a low slope, you should avoid any unnecessary roof penetrations. There are at least 5 penetrations if you mount a mast the traditional way and use guy wires to keep it in place: two holes (minimum) to secure the center base, plus three more for the evenly spaced guy wires Finally, while the antenna mount is movable, it is not intended to be "portable. "br>br>In many cases, the roof geometry may not be conducive to good antenna reception as well as adequate mounting support. br>br>Finally, while the antenna mount is movable, it is not intended to be "portable. " Unless there has been a change in the propagation path, the position should be kept.
ACE, HAVE YOU HAD ANY SUCCESS IN FINDING A PIPES TO INSTALL?.
It's a little difficult to plumb and level the mast on your own, but it's perfect for what I needed.
This antenna holder is very stable, despite the fact that the wind in Arizona is quite strong. Wow, thanks for a very dependable stand.
I've used two of these so far, and they've performed admirably.
