Versatile new mast from SMC Hilomast now available from Webb

Company Announcement - Webb Industries, part of the listed Jasco group, says that its new composite belt-driven mast from SMC Hilomast, the Storm Mast, is ideal for a variety of applications in Southern Africa especially in the military. The Storm Mast is designed to meet stringent MIL-810G standards and, made from a composite material, it is lightweight yet tough and is capable of supporting a wide range of head loads including antennas, cameras, lights, and much more.

Webb MD Paul Richards says that because of its composite material construction the Storm Mast is RF transparent. The range includes models with maximum extended heights from 6m to 18 metres with a full range of installation accessories for complete mast system solutions.  “This mast has been designed to perform without fail in the very worst weather conditions and this, combined with the fact that it is light and extremely durable will make it a popular choice amongst those, like the military, working in more remote areas,” says Richards.

Webb is the sole distributor in Southern Africa of South Midlands Communications, which has been successfully manufacturing masts for over 50 years and whose telescopic masts in particular are renowned worldwide for their exceptional performance in even the most hostile conditions.
