Scanstrut Fixed Antenna Mounts
Scanstrut Fixed Antenna Mounts: Engineered for the Marine Environment
When it comes to keeping navigation and communication antennas locked in place on the water, few names carry more authority than Scanstrut. Fixed antenna mounts are a cornerstone of the Scanstrut lineup, reflecting decades of purpose-built marine engineering from a brand that has shaped the industry since the mid-1980s.
Scanstrut was founded by an aeronautical engineer, and that aerospace-grade attention to precision has never left the company's DNA. Fixed antenna mounts in the Scanstrut range are crafted from materials specifically selected to withstand saltwater corrosion, UV exposure, and the constant vibration and shock of life underway — whether on a powerboat, a sailboat, or a superyacht.
What Sets Scanstrut Fixed Antenna Mounts Apart
Scanstrut's fixed antenna mount offerings are designed to accommodate a wide variety of antenna types in demanding positions. The T-Bar Antenna Mount (TB-01), for example, holds up to four GPS or VHF antennas simultaneously and mounts to upright stanchions, sloping transoms, and cabin roofs — with integrated cable management to keep wiring clean and protected. Rail compatibility spans 25mm (1") to 33.7mm (1¼") fittings, covering the most common marine tube sizes.
For boaters who need to position a GPS, VHF, HF/SSB, AM/FM, or cellular antenna above a radar installation, the LM-GPS Antenna Mount integrates with Scanstrut's self-leveling radar mount systems and accepts the standard 1" x 14 TPI thread found on virtually all modern marine antennas — making it straightforward to add communication capability above an existing radar arch setup.
Across its fixed mount range, Scanstrut emphasizes a few consistent design principles:
- Corrosion resistance — materials include marine-grade aluminum, polished stainless steel, and composite GRP, chosen for long-term exposure to salt spray
- Clean cable management — integrated routing keeps coax and power leads protected and out of sight
- Broad compatibility — mounts are engineered to work with antennas from leading brands including Garmin, Simrad, Raymarine, and Furuno
- Versatile mounting positions — from rail-mounted brackets to deck and transom configurations, covering virtually any installation scenario
A Brand Built on Rigorous Testing
Scanstrut's fixed antenna mounts benefit from the same rigorous validation process the company applies across its entire product line. Every design originates and is developed from concept to production by an in-house engineering team, and OEM partners conduct their own testing before adopting components. This means that what reaches the end user has already proven itself under extreme stress conditions. It's a philosophy that has earned Scanstrut multiple DAME Design Awards, a Queen's Award for International Trade, and recognition as a trusted OEM supplier to major marine electronics manufacturers worldwide.
Whether you're installing a single VHF antenna on a center console or rigging a multi-antenna array on a bluewater cruiser, Scanstrut's fixed antenna mounts deliver the stable, corrosion-free foundation your navigation and communication gear demands.
