FAQs
What is the exact diameter of this mast?
The mast has a standard diameter of 1 inch (25mm).
Can this mast be cut to a shorter length?
Yes, as it is made of alloy, it can be cut down to size using a standard metal hacksaw if a shorter height is required.
Is this mast suitable for coastal areas?
The alloy construction offers good corrosion resistance, making it better suited for varied environments than standard steel alternatives.
What does 18 SWG thickness mean?
18 SWG (Standard Wire Gauge) refers to the wall thickness of the metal tubing, which provides a balance between lightweight handling and structural rigidity.
Does this mast come with mounting brackets?
No, the package includes the mast only. Brackets and lashing kits must be purchased separately.
Troubleshooting
Mast feels unstable or wobbles
Check that the mounting brackets are tightened securely to the chimney or wall and ensure the mast is seated firmly in the cradle.
Difficulty fitting into existing bracket
Verify that your current mounting hardware supports a 25mm (1 inch) diameter. If it is too small, consider upgrading the clamp assembly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Lightweight and easy to maneuver during installation
- Durable alloy build resists environmental corrosion
- Standard 1-inch diameter fits most common hardware
- Provides significant height for better signal quality
Cons
- Requires specific mounting hardware matching the 1-inch diameter
- Length may require additional support brackets in high-wind zones
- Limited to standard antenna mounting applications
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your mounting bracket is rated for a 1-inch (25mm) pole diameter. Secure the mast using appropriate heavy-duty U-bolts or chimney lashing kits, taking care not to overtighten and deform the alloy wall. For long-term care, occasionally inspect the mounting points for signs of loosening due to vibration or thermal expansion. While the alloy material is naturally resistant to oxidation, keeping the mounting hardware free of debris will prolong the life of both the pole and the antenna assembly.
