Thread: AF-6600 Mounting Hole Clearance

  1. #1

    AF-6600 Mounting Hole Clearance

    The installation manual suggests the use of PEM or nut plate for mounting the display.

    Looking at the cutout dimensions in the installation manual, I cannot find a PEM nut that is specified for the hole to edge clearance (or one that will not even overhang into the cutout).
    Also cannot find a nut plate where the mounting holes could be hidden by the panel bezel.

    Anyone have any pictures of their mounting hardware setup for mounting the AF-5600/AF-6600?
    A close up of a mounted display from behind?
    Any part number suggestions for PEM or nut plates used?


    Thanks in advance, Craig

    Aerosport Products installed the PEM nuts for mine. They did hang over the edge of the cutout very so slightly. I just filed the nuts until they were flush with cutout. No big deal. I don?t think I have any pictures of the bade side of the panel insert.

    My last iteration of the panel I use nut plates on the 5500s. They can work too.

    Thanks for the info, I was thinking could be filed.. But was wondering if maybe I was not finding another option.
