OMNIMOUNT LAUNCHES NEW CLASSIC SERIES LINE OF FLAT PANEL MOUNTS

New mounts offer new design, providing fixed, tilt and cantilever mounts with improved functionality.

By Gary Reber

OmniMount, the global leader in consumer and commercial A/V mounting and furniture solutions, today announced the launch of the New Classic Series line of fixed, tilt and cantilever mounts to its ever-expanding lineup. These mounts provide installers a new design and improved functionality that offer perfect, smooth movement from the first time you take the product out of the box through every day use.
 
Putting a fresh spin on an old favorite, the New Classic Series provides fixed, tilt and cantilever mounts with improved functionality – not to mention a new, clean look. The New Classic Series is a complete line that consists of two fixed (NC80F, NC200F), two tilt (NC80T, NC200T) and five cantilever (NC30C, NC80C, NC100C, NC125C, NC200C) mounting solutions, accommodating most any flat panel and any application. The most notable new feature is the frictionless Delrin™ washers at every joint in four of the five cantilevers, giving installers and end users the benefit of smooth movement from its very first use (due to its size, the NC30C doesn’t feature this benefit). An improved locking system secures flat panel to the mount and provides easier behind-the-panel access. The series also features low mounting profiles, as well as single stud, 4-point solid wall and double stud mounting, depending on the mount.
 
The New Classic Series’ fixed and tilt mounts offer a space-saving footprint that uses less material and universal rails provide greater flat panel compatibility. Installation is a breeze as the mounts boast a sliding lateral on-wall adjustment and an open-architecture design that provides easy access to in-wall wiring. Rail hooks are padded to avoid metal-on-metal contact and reduce vibrations. Enhancing the new sleek design, end caps cover locking hardware and present a clean side view. The NC80F and NC80T accommodate most flat panels from 23 to 42 inches and up to 80 pounds, while the NC200F and NC200T fits most flat panels from 37 to 63 inches and up to 200 pounds.
 
The five cantilever mounts in the New Classic Series feature a patent-pending 4-bar tilt mechanism for effortless adjustment and extruded aluminum arms for maximum support in a lightweight mount. Streamlined arms are designed to nest for a compact mounting profile. Each cantilever in the line tilts, pans and swivels -5 degrees to 15 degrees to reduce glare and create an optimal viewing scenario. The span of all five cantilever mounts support most small to extra large flat panels ranging from 23 to 70 inches and weighing from 30 to 200 pounds.
 
As with all OmniMount flat panel mounts, the New Classic Series features OmniMount’s exclusive Lift n’ Lock™ technology for quick and easy installation along with an integrated cable management system for concealing unsightly wiring. Each mount comes equipped with an installation template for simple and accurate mounting along with a complete hardware kit.
 
The New Classic Series of fixed, tilt and cantilever mounts are available now. The fixed and tilt mounts (NC80F, NC80T, NC200F and NC200T) MSRPs have not yet been announced. The NC30C, NC80C, NC100C, NC125C and NC200C have MSRPs of $79.95, $179.95, $199.95, $299.95 and $349.95, respectively.
