The EX105 Series are Lightweight Heavy Duty Carbon-Fibre Composite Portable Telescopic Masts
Heights to 15 Metres and Headloads to 30 Kg

Cobham Mast Systems's EX105 Series of lightweight telescopic masts are designed to meet the most demanding requirements of mobile communication systems, yet still fill the expectations of an economical budget. These masts are also applicable to many uses in such areas as defence, the police, geodetic surveying, radio and TV broadcasting, emergency communication operations as well as temporary illumination.

Every mast and guy assembly detail has been designed to resist external forces and to ensure quick and safe operation. These masts perform excellently in both arctic and tropical areas as well as desert environments. Mast sections are keyed together to prevent individual section rotation. The EX105 Series are "hand-crank" erecting types, but can also optionally be extended electrically. Mounting kits for vehicles and shelters as well as a variety of other ancillary equipment is available for the EX105 series.

All EX105 Series mast sections are manufactured from pulltruded composite carbon/glass fibre tubes with light metal and stainless steel fittings. The mast's composite fibre tubes move inside each other on guide keyways which prevent the individual sections from turning and also keep the mast from twisting. EX105 masts are rotatable through 360 degrees and can be locked in any position. Mechanical stops prevent the sections from being disengaged during extension. Mast sections are finished in standard green colour with black fittings. Other colours are available on request.

Every mast is supplied with a robust reinforced transit bag containing a set of field deployment accessories which are designed to expedite mast set up and tear down time, even in the harshest of environments. The user-friendly design of the guy rope reels and tensioners makes the task of tensioning the guys and plumbing the mast simple, rapid and straight forward, while the highly tempered ground pickets are suitable for repeated use in a wide variety of ground conditions including permafrost.

The EX105 series of masts meet the environmental requirements of MIL-STD 810. Cobham Mast Systems International Oy conform to the Quality Standard ISO9001.
