Built on a Solid Aluminium Base (Not Plastic)
Unlike many magnetic mounts that rely on plastic or thin composite bases, this mount features a machined aluminium base for superior strength and long-term reliability.
Aluminium provides:
-
Higher structural rigidity under vibration and corrugations
-
Better load distribution across the magnetic mounting surface
-
Improved heat resistance when mounted on vehicle roofs
-
Longer service life compared to plastic-based mounts
This makes it far more suitable for real touring conditions, where constant movement, heat, and vibration quickly expose weak designs.
Strong Magnetic Mounting (Aluminium-Backed)
High-strength rubber-coated magnets are bonded to a rigid aluminium base, ensuring the mount stays stable at highway speeds and on corrugated roads.
The aluminium base prevents flexing and distortion that can occur with plastic mounts, helping maintain consistent magnetic contact with the vehicle roof.
Aluminium vs Plastic Mounts (Why It Matters)
| Feature | This Mount (Aluminium Base) | Plastic-Based Mounts |
|---|---|---|
| Structural rigidity | ✅ High | ❌ Can flex |
| Heat resistance | ✅ Excellent | ❌ Can soften |
| Vibration handling | ✅ Designed for corrugations | ❌ Fatigue over time |
| Longevity | ✅ Long-term use | ❌ Shorter lifespan |
| Premium feel | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
