Mastsystem's EX105 Series of lightweight telescoping masts are designed to meet the most demanding requirements of mobile communication systems, yet still fill the expectations of an economical budget. These masts are also useful in such areas as defense, the police, geodetic surveying, radio and TV broadcasting, emergency communication operations as well as temporary illumination.

Every mast and guy assembly detail has been designed to resist external forces and to ensure quick and safe operation. These masts perform excellently in both arctic and tropical areas as well as desert environments. The EX105 Series are "hand-crank" erecting types, but can also optionally be extended electrically. Mounting kits for vehicles and shelters as well as a variety of other ancillary equipment is available for the EX105 series.

All EX105 Series mast sections are manufactured from pulltruded composite carbon fiber tubes with light metal and stainless steel fittings. The mast's composite carbon fiber tubes move inside each other on keyways that prevent the individual sections from turning and also keep the mast from twisting. EX105 masts are rotatable 360 degrees and can be locked in any position. Mechanical stops prevent the sections from being disengaged during extension. Mast sections are finished in standard green color with black fittings. Other colors are available on request.

Every mast is supplied with a robust reinforced transit bag containing a set of field deployment accessories that are designed to expedite mast set up and tear down time, even in the harshest environments. The user-friendly design of the guy rope reels and tensioners makes the task of tensioning the guys and plumbing the mast simple, rapid and straightforward, while the highly tempered ground stakes are suitable for repeated use in a wide variety of ground conditions including permafrost.

The EX105 series of masts meet the environmental requirements of MIL-STD 810.
