Gibraltar LP5-C8H-G Studded Pivotal Leveling Mount

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LP5-C8H-G is a studded pivotal leveling mount designed to support heavy stationary equipment on uneven or irregular surfaces. It combines a steel stud with a rubber pad base to provide both structural load-bearing capacity and vibration dampening. Rated for 5,000 pounds load capacity, the mount features a 6-inch base diameter and an overall length of 9-13/16 inches. The pivoting action allows the pad to self-adjust to minor surface variations, maintaining consistent contact and stable support. Millwrights, maintenance technicians, and industrial installers use these mounts when leveling machinery, HVAC equipment bases, compressors, and similar floor-mounted equipment.

This leveling mount is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and mechanical room environments where heavy equipment must be precisely leveled and secured. The rubber pad reduces transmitted vibration to the floor structure, which is important in applications near sensitive equipment or finished surfaces. The steel stud accepts standard fasteners and allows for height adjustment during installation. It is appropriate for both initial equipment setup and retrofit leveling applications where existing mounts have worn or failed.

Key Features

• 5,000 pound load capacity for heavy-duty equipment support
• 6-inch base diameter distributes load across a wider footprint
• Rubber pad base dampens vibration and protects floor surfaces
• Steel stud construction with 5/8-11 bolt thread size for secure fastening
• Pivotal design self-adjusts to uneven surfaces for consistent pad contact
• Overall length of 9-13/16 inches accommodates height adjustment during leveling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation leveling mount for floor-mounted industrial and commercial equipment requiring a 5/8-11 threaded stud and a 6-inch rubber pad base.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights or mechanical technicians using standard wrenches sized for a 5/8-11 thread. Equipment must be de-energized and safely supported before removing or replacing leveling mounts. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris before seating the rubber pad to achieve full contact and rated load capacity. Confirm final torque and level readings with a precision level after all mounts are set.
