UNIVERSAL SONAR MOUNT

MEGATOWER

MEGATOWER

The Megatower is USM's large-scale version of the Hightower, designed to withstand high working torque loads. This model is recommended for systems with Z-Pole lengths up to 14', bearing loads up to 200lbs.

Just like the  Compact, Hightower, and XL, the Megatower 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.
