FAQs
FAQs
What does a factor of safety of 2 actually mean?
A factor of safety of 2 means the bracket can handle twice the load it was tested against before reaching its structural limit. Given the test used Wellington's maximum recorded wind speed of 248 km/h, that's a significant real-world margin.
Is the clip-in design as strong as a traditional pole mount?
The clip-in mechanism is part of Starlink's Gen 3 design. The AVS adapter works with that system and has been independently assessed via CFD and FEA simulation, the engineering data confirms it performs reliably under extreme wind loading.
What wind speeds is the bracket rated for?
The assessment used 248 km/h, the highest wind speed ever recorded in Wellington. Most installations across New Zealand, Australia, Europe and the UK will never see conditions anywhere near that level.
What material is the bracket made from, and why does it matter?
The bracket is cast from ADC12/A383 aluminium alloy, a die-cast grade known for strength, corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy, important for a mount that lives outside year-round in all weather conditions.
Can installers get wholesale pricing on the Gen 3 Clip-In Pole Adapter?
Yes. AVS offers a wholesale program for registered installers across New Zealand, Australia, Europe and the UK. Get in touch through the AVS website to find out more.
