Cantilever Arms

Double and single cantilever arms posts are available in lengths of 150mm, 300mm, 450mm, 600mm & 750mm.

Materials and finishes available are mild steel hot dip galvanised as standard and stainless steel grade 1.4404 (316L) to order. Where requirements specify – a post manufacture process which involves chemical cleaning and passivation of stainless steel parts is also available on request.

Recommended safe loads (kg.) for arm bolted to 2.5mm thick channel (M12 bolt torque 65Nm)

NB: Arms have been independently tested (M12 bolt torque 65 Nm). Tabulated safe loads satisfy minimum factor of safety of 3 on continuous slip and limited design stresses in channel arms and their fixings.
