These brackets provide twin 3mm plate steel ridgid Awning Mounts, as well as a trailing awning arm hook bracket support. They are strong enough to handle all known heavy duty of Pole less awnings.
This brackets set is manufactured in Australia - they features additional stiffening and push the awning back plate approx 20mm out from the edge of the bundutop.
The Awning comes in a MID mount or an UP mount. This Listing is for the 'MID MOUNT " variety Mid mount places the awning pretty much flush with the tents base, perfect for most installations of bundutop tent to canopies or roof racks, while the up mount adds an additional 50-80mm of height if you need it. (UP mounts are sometimes required for low vehicles or Trailers)
The Mounting points facilitate Awning mounts right down to 1940mm spacing, with a wider option also for longer awings. The 'INFOLD' set up of these brackets brings the rear arm in as close as possible to the rear of the tent - preventing rain getting through any large gaps.
We have also now an integrated Adjustable hook bracket which is included in this kit, allowing adjustment of awning tension on the fly using a 13mm Spanner and 6mm Hex Allen key.
THe Kit also can be optioned below to include our 'Bundu Suite' Integration kit, which adds a 4th corner steel plate on the front drivers side, allowing the Bundutop SUITE to be mounted over the Tents Buttons, hinging the suite and allowing the ladder mount to remain on the Drivers side of the vehicle.
If your intending to install a 360 Awning - Please check your awnings mounting spec - (Length ) and ensure that the arms when set up will still cup the Bundutop tent ok...(The tents are 2.1m Long ( We don't know the entire range of awings geometry worldwide.. Its too many - so we have built the brackets as a standard kit to work for all awnings.... An Ostrich wing for example when mounted - will have the rear arm set 100mm behind the point where its bolted - with this bracket set the awning arm ends up about 30mm behind the tent when open, so does the bush company awnings , but .. others will be different, and the swing out measurement should be stated on their spec sheets.
The Kit comes complete with

BUNDUTOP TENT NOTES:
The Bundutop Tent is shorter than most at just 2.1m long, and its large flat faces make it ideal for fitment of awnings - The Bundutop tent is Capable of taking Double ended Bush company XT 180 Awnings - as well as the XT max - However we do reccommend carrying poles and Guy ropes in even mid strength wind - as these awnings do not 'wrap around the tent' and thus exert all twist pressure on just the one side of the tents they are fitted too..
AWNING Postitioning INFORMATION IMPORTANT
Brackets fitted to Bundutop Tents sit flush with the base of the tent - making them OK to install directly onto the lid of canopy or Racks that are wider than the tents base...
All Other Tents Bracket systems (ALL CLAMSHELL TENT BRACKETS) DONT fit flush beside the tent and require the tent to sit on a rack ABOVE the canopy. Some tents like the EEzi Awn tents brackets have to sit below the tent as far as 90mm.
MEASURE and Check. The awnings are usually about 20cm top to bottom thickness - Ensure there is room beside the tent and if its a clamshell tent, below it as well ... Open doors etc, check they will open under the installed awning.
