The RAYMARINE T006 mast slide bracket is a mounting accessory designed specifically for Raymarine navigation instruments. It enables stable and vertical installation of devices such as compasses or displays directly on a sailboat's mast, optimizing their visibility and data accuracy.

Installing the T006 clamp involves several key steps:

Insert the metal slide into the mast slot at the desired height. Secure the slide in place with the first bolt. Position the clamp and loosely attach it to the slide with the second bolt. Remove and retighten the first bolt. Tighten both bolts firmly. Attach the cradle of your instrument (supplied with the relevant device) to the clamp using the stainless steel bolts. This method ensures a rigid and secure mounting.

The T006 bracket packaging includes the following items:

The long mast slide bracket (T006 Long Slug Bracket).A metal slug (metal slug).Two non-magnetic M4 bolts.

The T006 bracket is compatible with Raymarine navigation instruments that use a specific mounting cradle, such as compasses or displays. The instrument cradle is secured to the bracket using stainless steel bolts, ensuring compatibility with devices designed for this type of mounting.

To ensure the accuracy of a compass installed with the T006 bracket, it is essential to follow these precautions:

The compass must be installed with a maximum tilt of 20° relative to the vertical. Do not tilt the compass to port or starboard. Do not install the instrument less than 0.6 meters (2 feet) from magnetic objects. Note that a conventional compass is itself a magnetic object and must be included in this distance.

Yes, once the cradle of your instrument is securely fastened to the T006 bracket, you can simply clip your product into its cradle each time you sail. This allows for easy installation and removal of the instrument from its cradle without having to disassemble the bracket from the mast.

Yes, if you plan to remove the T006 mast clamp later, it is advisable to apply silicone grease to the slide and screws before assembly. This precaution will make future disassembly of the clamp easier.

The main advantage of the T006 mast slide bracket is its ability to provide a rigid and stable mount for navigation instruments on the mast. Its slide system ensures secure adjustment and methodical installation, which is essential for the reliability and accuracy of the data displayed by the devices.
