brackets fot motorized system

[jpr]

Would a galvanised L shaped bracket with 60mm tube, 460mm stand-off and an upstand of 230mm be strong enough for a gibertini 1m motorized dish with technomate motor. If not what size t&k bracket would i need for a south facing wall.

yes by the sound of it,use m8x60mm coach bolts and 10mm plugs for the wall plate

So theL shaped bracket would be good enough?

I"ve had a 1mt dish and tm motor on an L shaped mount for 0ver 3yrs with no probs you only need T&K if you need a long pole to go over the gutter,as said though make sure you use good fixings and make sure its 100% upright in all directions.shim with penny washers if you wall is slightly out although I"ve never had to do that.

does it look like this as this is ok. the other two pics are of an orbital 1mt dish and tm motor fixed to the front of my house.

If you want to be 100,000.000% sure then go for the T K brakets .

Ye, excatly like the picture above, just a bit longer which could be better, more room for the dish to swing east and west without hitting the wall.
