RailMount Pre-Cut for Garmin GPSMAP® 923 & 943xsv
RailMount NavPods are best used for mounting an autopilot control, sailing
instrument, or small chartplotter onto an existing pedestal guard. Fits onto any
1″, 1.125″, or 1.25″ diameter tube. A Stainless Steel arm is used to mount the
NavPod housing. The NavPod can rotate 180 degrees for easy viewing while sitting
under the dodger on a rainy day. All wiring runs from the NavPod, down the
center of the stainless steel arm (available space is 0.75″ inside the narrowest
part of the arm, so keep this in mind for planning your cable run; most
transducer cables will not fit through the arm), and into the pedestal guard.
This application provides a clean and sturdy installation for electronics,
without the replacement of the pedestal guard.
RailMounts are designed for all popular standard-size instruments, as well as 7
and 9-inch chartplotters.
Structural Rigidity – The Gen3 enhancements now include a thicker gauge acrylic
capped ABS material that improves strength and provides better structural
rigidity. This thicker material allows for a larger waterproof seal. The better
the structural rigidity, the less flexing when tightening and more uniform
pressure on the seal. The excellent UV stability of the acrylic is combined with
the durability of the ABS. The acrylic cap protects the ABS from UV and its
potentially damaging effects on plastic.
Waterproof Seal – All RailMount NavPods are manufactured with a double gasket
system providing an excellent watertight seal. This seal provides the best
protection for your Marine Electronics. NavPods are made to withstand the
harshest wet offshore boating conditions. Gen3 enhancements include a thicker
external silicone gasket with an improved flush fit. The internal Poron
Microcell Polyurethane gasket is now 50% thicker and is not subject to a
“compression set” like many rubber compounds. This is important when you need to
open the NavPod in the future in order to service your electronics. The gasket
will continue to do its job.
Nickel Chrome-Plated Stainless Steel – We use all 316 stainless steel hardware
that is supplied with each NavPod. Large round-head tamper-resistant screws have
deeper sockets for the NavPod wrench for better holding ability when tightening
than screws used on our Traditional Series NavPod. The Nickel Chrome-Plated
Stainless Steel tamper-resistant screws provide security combined with a little
style!
Commitment to Quality – We stand behind our commitment by offering a 10-year
warranty on all new Gen3 NavPods.
