•
Intermediate Tubes:
refer to the tubes between the base tube and the top tube. When
referencing intermediate tubes, they are referenced from bottom to top. In context of the
entire mast, tubes would be listed from bottom to top as: base tube, first intermediate tube,
second intermediate tubes, etc., top tube.
•
LPM:
stands for liters per minute.
•
Mast:
refers to the telescoping Pneumatic Mast.
•
Mast System:
refers to the entire Pneumatic Mast System (telescoping mast, pneumatic
system, mounting hardware, and additional accessories).
•
Nested:
refers to the position of the mast where no tubes have risen. The mast remains
retracted. This position is sometimes referred to as “stowed”.
•
Nm or N·m:
stands for Newton-Meter, which is a form of torque.
•
NPT:
stands for “American National Standard Pipe Thread” or “National Pipe Thread” for
short; a United States standard for thread specifications on pipes and fittings. NPT threads
are tapered.
•
OD:
stands for Outside Diameter or the diameter to the outside edge of a circle.
•
Payload:
refers to the object or equipment being raised by the mast to an operational height.
•
PSI:
stands for pound-force per square inch.
•
PSIG:
stands for pound-force per square inch gauge. PSIG refers to a gauge that has been

prevents the top tube from sliding too far down into a nested mast.
•
Tube Head:
refers to the component at the base of the base tube.
•
UHD:
stands for Ultra Heavy Duty.
•
Wear Rings:
refers to the preformed split synthetic bearings that fit in the wear ring groove
around the butt plate above the seal on each interior tube. The wear rings guide the bottom of
the tube through the next larger tube.
•
