Gibraltar MD-TS3-G Tapped Pivotal Leveling Mount M16

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR MD-TS3-G is a tapped pivotal leveling mount designed for industrial machine and equipment positioning applications. It features an M16 threaded steel stud and a Delrin pad base that allows angular self-adjustment, helping equipment sit level on uneven surfaces without placing side-load stress on the stud. The mount is rated to 544 kN load capacity, making it suitable for heavy stationary machinery. With a base diameter of 63.5 mm (approximately 2.5 inches) and an overall length of 31.7 mm (approximately 1.25 inches), it is a compact unit sized for space-limited mounting locations. Installation is handled by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and equipment installation crews.

This leveling mount is used in industrial and commercial facility settings where heavy equipment must be precisely leveled and anchored to concrete floors or structural bases. Typical applications include machine tool bases, conveyor frames, compressors, pumps, and similar stationary process equipment. The pivotal pad design accommodates slight floor irregularities and reduces vibration transfer to the mounting surface, making it well suited for equipment that must maintain positional accuracy during operation.

Key Features

• 544 kN rated load capacity for heavy industrial equipment support
• M16 threaded steel stud provides strong, durable fastening
• Delrin pad allows pivotal self-leveling to compensate for uneven surfaces
• 63.5 mm (approximately 2.5 inch) base diameter distributes load across a stable footprint
• Compact 31.7 mm (approximately 1.25 inch) overall length fits tight clearance installations
• 22 mm hex stud for standard wrench adjustment during leveling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation leveling mount for heavy industrial machinery and equipment bases requiring M16 tapped pivotal mounts with Delrin pads.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights or qualified maintenance technicians. Before adjusting or replacing leveling mounts, ensure the equipment is de-energized, depressurized, and safely supported by blocking or lifting equipment to prevent movement. Use a 22 mm wrench on the hex stud to make leveling adjustments. Verify load ratings are not exceeded and that mating threaded receivers are in good condition before final torque and lockdown.
