Overview:
This is a specialized antenna mount designed for securely fixing a 28.5mm diameter fiberglass LoRa antenna to a 100mm round drainpipe. The mount is ideal for outdoor installations, gateway setups, or any scenario where you need to position your antenna on a standard pipe.
Features:
- Secure Fit: Uses an M6 screw and nut to clamp tightly around the drainpipe, offering a stable base.
- Antenna Clamp: The antenna holder uses an M3 screw and nut for easy tightening and secure positioning.
- Sturdy Print: The model was designed to be printed in PETG for strength and UV resistance, with 4 perimeters for enhanced durability.
- Optimized for FDM Printing: Print with organic supports and a 30-degree overhang threshold for best results (recommended but not mandatory).
- Easy Assembly: Minimal hardware required for fast installation and removal.
Suggestions:
- This mount is ideal for LoRa or similar antennas but could be repurposed for WiFi or other radio projects.
- PETG is recommended for outdoor use due to its weather and UV resistance, but ABS or ASA may work as well.
