Description
This tree mount bracket with swivel head mount
is great for mounting solar panels and other devices such as trail cameras to
trees and wooden posts. The swivel head mount
screws onto the tree mount bracket via standard 1/4”-20 tripod screw threads,
and the top of the swivel head mount has standard 1/4”-20 male tripod screw
threads for mounting solar panels, trails cameras and many other types of
devices that have standard 1/4”-20 female tripod screw threads. The swivel head mount is adjustable for versatile
positioning of solar panels and trail cameras.
The tree mount bracket has self-tapping tapered wood screw threads for mounting to trees or wooden posts. Both
the tree mount bracket and swivel head mount are made of weather and
rust-resistant materials.
Swivel Head Mount
The swivel head mount has 1/4"-20 male
screw threads on the top for attachment to our solar panels that have
1/4"-20 female screw thread sockets on the back. The swivel head mount can be attached to the tree
mount bracket which has 1/4"-20 male screw threads for attachment to the
bottom of this swivel head mount which has a 1/4"-20 female screw thread
socket. The swivel head mount can be adjusted
in both azimuth and elevation. The
azimuth angle can be rotated a full 360°, and the elevation angle can be adjusted up to 45° and a full 90° when the stem on the swivel ball is
positioned in the notch in the housing. These
versatile adjustment options allow for positioning of solar panels to better
align with the direction of the sun. See
the illustrations for more details about these positioning options and
application examples. Once the position
of the solar panel is determined, the adjustment knob can be firmly tightened
to hold the solar panel in place. The non-slip
textured finish on the top of the round base jam nut helps to prevent the solar
panel from inadvertently rotating, and the round base jam nut can also be
firmly tightened up against the back of the solar panel to further prevent
inadvertent rotation. The housing of the
swivel head mount is made of a black anodized aluminum alloy, and the swivel
ball, stem and screw threads are made of a chrome plated steel to help prevent rust
& corrosion. The swivel head mount
has a diameter of 1.12” (2.84cm), and its overall height is 2.06” (5.24cm). This swivel head mount can also be used with
tripods, digital cameras, cell phones, camcorders, trail cameras, security
cameras, camera flashes, and many other types of devices that have standard
1/4"-20 tripod screw threads.
Tree Mount Bracket
The tree mount bracket has 1/4"-20 male
screw threads on one end for attachment of the swivel head mount, and the other
end has self-tapping tapered wood screw threads for screwing into a tree or
wooden post. The tree mount bracket is
painted black and is made of a steel/iron alloy to help prevent rust &
corrosion. The tree mount bracket has an
overall length of 7.4” (18.796cm), and the diameter of the rod is 0.275” (0.6985cm). Even though the tree mount bracket has
self-tapping wooden screw threads, we recommend drilling a small pilot hole in
the tree or wooden post to made it easier to screw in the tree mount bracket.
