Chief FIXED PIPE 48" - CMS048
Product Overview
The Chief CMS048 fixed extension column provides a 48" drop for ceiling-mounted projectors and displays in commercial AV installations. Built from a strong aluminum 1.5" NPT column threaded on both ends, it pairs with any Chief 1.5" NPT ceiling plate or accessory and includes flow-through cable management. The black finish suits conference room, auditorium, and digital signage projects that require a long, clean column run.
Product Description
The CMS048 is a 48-inch fixed column used to set a precise, secure drop height for a ceiling-mounted projector or flat panel. The aluminum extension column is engineered for easy installation and maximum strength, making it suitable for long drops in rooms with high or open ceilings. Flow-through cable management with a cable exit port lets power and signal cabling run inside the column and exit cleanly, keeping the installation tidy and professional. The column consists of a 1.5" NPT pipe threaded on both ends, so it threads directly into any Chief 1.5" NPT ceiling plate, coupler, or mounting accessory for a code-conscious connection. The black finish blends into most ceiling environments. The CMS048 is TAA compliant for government and institutional procurement. For shorter drops, see other fixed columns such as the CMS036 in the Chief collection.
