PLP Series Wall Mount
The PLP Series wall mount accommodates large flat
screens weighing up to 200 lbs (90.72kg). The teardrop
holes in the mount allow for quick connect/disconnect of
the screen, thus simplifying installation and maintenance
processes.
The top and bottom mounting brackets are adaptable to
supporting framework with wood studs that are 16” on
center or 24”on center.
The mount has integrated lateral shift, allowing for four
different mounting options. For dual wood studs 16” on
center, the lateral shift is + 4.5 inches. For dual wood
studs 24” on center, the lateral shift is + 0.5 inches.
The display can be pulled and tilted by hand into any
position in the zero-to-15 degree tilt range and remain
stationary.
The bottom of the mount pulls forward 4” from the wall
and locks into place for installation of cable connections.
The mount also uses Chief’s exclusive Q-Latch™
mounting system, which offers quick connect/disconnect
display mounting. The display is secured to the mount
with a latching flag. For additional security, you can lock
the latching flag in place by adding a padlock.
