MEDIUM FLAT PANEL DISPLAY TILT MOUNT  

MTR Series

 

 

The MTR Series tilt mount accommodates medium flat 
panel displays weighing up to 100 lbs (45.36kgs). 

The teardrop holes in the mount allow for quick 
connect/disconnect of the display, thus simplifying 
installation and maintenance processes.  

The top and bottom mounting brackets are adaptable to 
single wood stud mounting or dual wood studs that are 
16” on center.  

The display can be pulled and tilted into any position in 
the zero-to-15 degree tilt range and remain stationary. 
When fully retracted, the mount depth is 1.54 inches. 

After installing the display on the mount, the screen can 
be locked in place using the convenient locking flag.  
A padlock can be used on the latching flag for added 
security. 

The mount is concealed behind the display, making it a 
low profile wall mount.
