I have for sale another Precision polar mount. It is the triangular frame version with galvanised finish and in good working order. The polar mount had previously been used within a few miles of the coast so there is a bit of sea air impact on the galvanised finish, however, the galvanising is still intact.
Both top and bottom bearings have been replaced with brand new bearings (16mm bore) and the bearing shaft bolts have also been replaced with brand new stainless steel M16 bolts. Both of the new bearings have been protected with a wrapping of Denso tape and round caps are provided to cover the bearing shaft socket heads.
The polar mount is capable of accepting any Precision dish that was manufactured with the 600mm rear mounting ring. To the best of my knowledge this covers the dish range of 1.2m to 2.4m (2.2m and 2.4m had the option of either a 600mm or 1200mm rear mounting ring). The mount will fit a 3" diameter pole or can be used with a larger diameter pole with a pole adapter.
With a little bit of simple fabrication work it is also possible to use the polar mount with other makes of satellite dish.
Some pictures of the polar mount are attached below. Please note that the ground stand present in the attached pictures is not included in the sale.
Asking Price: £250 excluding delivery.
