The CMK-A bracket cylinder mounting kit is a rigid, low-profile method of securing either aluminum or fiber-wound cylinders to a flat surface inside a deep area where removal on the axis is not possible and scratching the cylinder may be a concern. A wide fabric strap is used to secure the cylinder, minimizing the possibility of scratching the cylinder.
The CMK-A provides the greatest number of options for mounting fiber-wrapped and aluminum cylinders. The brackets and fabric belts of the CMK-A bracket quad-point kit feature a quick-release mechanism for quick removal and replacement of the cylinder without removal of the mounted kit. The CMK-A brackets can be positioned anywhere throughout the circumference of the fabric belts for a variety of mounting options. The fabric belts can be rotated so the tightening buckle is positioned almost anywhere desired for easy access. The kit provides options that will allow cylinder installation in areas that have been inaccessible with previous mounting kits and systems. The CMK-A is used with many composite-fiber aircraft.
