Extension column for projector mounting
The CHIEF MANUFACTURING CMS012018 is an adjustable extension column designed to lower a projector to the desired height. It connects to any 1.5 NPT accessory and supports a weight capacity of 500 lbs. Installers can use it in commercial or residential ceiling installations.
Adjustable length with fixed increments
The column extends from 12 to 18 inches and locks in 1 inch increments without disassembly. A notched design allows quick height changes while the projector remains mounted. This reduces installation time when aligning the image on site.
Cable routing and locking hardware
Flow-through cable management includes a cable exit port to keep wiring tidy inside the column. A set screw is supplied for additional stability once the height is set. The black finish matches typical ceiling hardware.
