UNIVERSAL SONAR MOUNT

COMPACT

COMPACT

The Compact is USM's lightest, most portable mount with the ability to be taken on international flights. This model is recommended for systems with Z-Pole lengths up to 7', bearing loads up to 45lbs.

Just like the Hightower, Megatower, and XL, the Compact uses a vertical lead-screw mechanism called the Shear Block Tower to engage and disengage the Z-Pole, also serving as a breakaway safety feature in the event of a collision.
