CMB 1 OPTIONAL MOUNTING BRACKET 

 

The  CMB  1  mounting  bracket  is  ideal  for  mounting  the  CNR  4  to  a  pole  or  wall.  The  stainless  steel  construction 
ensures a durable fixation to almost any object. The top U bolts allow rotation of the CNR 4 rod, while the extra 
screw under the front U bolt allows the rod to tilt. All mounting material for fixation to a horizontal or vertical pole 
is included. The 2 different sized pairs of U bolts allow for pole sizes between 22 mm and 60 mm. Wall mounting 
bolts and or plugs are not included.
