Permanent adhesive discs secure the base, while the dish can be removed whenever needed.
This low-profile adhesive mounting kit provides a drill-free way to install a third-generation standard satellite dish on an RV, van, boat, trailer, truck, or marine surface. Remove the kickstand by pressing its tabs and sliding it out, click the dish into the mounting base, attach the discs to the chosen surface, wait for the adhesive to cure correctly, and then lower the base into position.
The system uses adhesive-backed magnetic mounting discs with industrial-strength adhesive to create a lasting connection to the roof. Because the bond is permanent, check the location carefully before attaching them. Once installed, the discs form a magnetic landing area. Rubber-coated magnets rest on the discs and secure the mounting base, while the magnets themselves remain removable. Lift the dish away for storage, servicing, clearance in a low garage, or winter storage, then replace it within seconds without tools or new adhesive.
On bare or painted steel, the discs are unnecessary because the magnets can attach directly to the surface. This kit supports both installation methods. Choose the discs for fiberglass, aluminum, composite, or rubber roofing, where magnets cannot grip; on steel, mount directly.
Note: The base offers a small amount of flex for curved roofs, but swivel leg mount adapters may be needed to maximize surface contact when using discs, magnets, or suction cups.
Strength: When installed correctly, this mount is intended for normal driving conditions and wind turbulence. For reduced wind exposure and added dish protection, installation behind another object, such as an AC unit or storage box, is recommended. The end user remains responsible for confirming that the installation is properly secured. In fully exposed positions or at higher speeds, use a standard high-speed mount instead.
Key Features:
- Safety tested at highway speeds
- Drill-free installation
