Detailed description

Specifically designed for integrating multifunction displays in Raymarine’s Axiom XL series, the R70668 rear-mount kit enables flush-mounted installation of the 16-inch Axiom XL model. This mounting method is preferred for modern dashboards, delivering a clean aesthetic and enhanced protection against marine elements and physical shocks compared to bracket mounting.

Integration and positioning of the Axiom XL range

Raymarine’s Axiom XL series is positioned as a premium multifunction display solution, comparable to B&G’s Glass Helm series (e.g., Zeus³S Glass Helm) or Garmin’s GPSMAP 8400/8600. These systems are intended for vessels requiring large display areas and advanced integration. The R70668 kit is an essential accessory for Axiom XL 16-inch owners seeking a professional finish and visual harmony with their navigation console design. It ensures the display integrates seamlessly into the dashboard, reducing clutter and snag hazards.

Advantages of rear mounting

Rear mounting provides the 16-inch Axiom XL with a finish akin to integrated glass bridges, where only the screen panel and its edges are flush with the dashboard surface. This mounting approach enhances the durability of the entire system by minimizing exposure of the device’s edges and ensuring even distribution of mechanical stress. It is a technical solution that guarantees a stable and secure installation for equipment of this size and value.

« Rear mounting kit for Axiom XL 16" : professional integration »

Installing a large multifunction display like the Axiom XL 16-inch model is a key factor for the ergonomics and aesthetics of a helm station. The Raymarine R70668 rear-mount kit is the technical solution for a so-called 'flush mount' or recessed installation. This type of installation is particularly relevant for units where the console design is a central element, especially on modern yachts and high-end powerboats.

In terms of usability, this kit not only provides a visually superior finish by aligning the screen with the dashboard surface but also contributes to the physical protection of the device. A recessed screen is less exposed to accidental impacts and direct spray compared to a bracket-mounted installation, which can extend the equipment's lifespan in a demanding marine environment. It also improves access to touch controls by reducing the device's protrusion.

From an installation perspective, rear mounting requires precise cutting of the dashboard and sufficient access behind the console to secure the screen and kit. This is a meticulous operation that demands appropriate tools to ensure watertightness and perfect mounting. Unlike a simple bracket installation, which can be done by a knowledgeable user, recessed mounting is often entrusted to a professional to ensure flawless integration and avoid any structural or aesthetic damage to the panel. It is essential to ensure that the dashboard material thickness is compatible with the kit's mounting requirements.
