In 8 ft and 10 ft configurations under structural load, unsupported mid-span length can introduce flex. The saddle mount adds a structural junction at any point along a pole span to address this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe saddle mount attaches to a TactiFrame carbon fiber pole at any position along its length and connects to a TactiFrame hook mount on an adjacent structural member. A mid-span saddle mount and cross-pole reduces the effective unsupported span length of the pole by approximately fifty percent. No corner connector assembly is required, and existing frame structure does not need to be modified during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMid-span attachment.\u003c\/strong\u003e Attaches at any position along a TactiFrame carbon fiber pole, with no restriction to pole ends.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection interface.\u003c\/strong\u003e Connects to TactiFrame standard and 45 degree threaded hook mounts.
