Orbit’s latest innovation, the Simple Support Bracket, SSB, works alongside Orbit’s Universal Mounting Adapter, UMA, and Stud Mounting Adjustable Ring Series, WBAR1G and 2G to form a versatile Stud Bracket System. This system provides the installer with a solution for mounting boxes and devices between studs.

The Simple Support Bracket

         

         The SSB is adjustable from 16” to 24” and allows for the installation of up to 2 boxes between 16” studs and 3 between 24” studs. Once boxes are installed, they can be easily adjusted along the bracket. The SSB eliminates the need for a far-side back support as the bracket maintains its rigidity even when fully extended. Centerline cutouts and a mounting hole located on each side allow for efficient and accurate installations.

          Mounting boxes to the SSB is made simple with Universal Mounting Adapter, UMA, or Stud Mounting Adjustable Rings, WBAR Series. The UMA and the WBAR Series fit 4” and 4-11/16” square boxes and can be used with the SSB for stud-to-stud mounting, or on their own for direct-to-stud mounting.

The UMA accepts boxes and rings to form a versatile box and ring assembly, which can be preassembled and then easily snapped onto the SSB. For direct-to-stud mounting, simply use the centerline cutouts and mounting holes on the UMA’s flanges. The UMA is compatible with Orbit’s Adjustable Rings providing further versatility.

Like the UMA, the WBAR also can be used as a box adapter for the SSB or on its own for direct-to-stud mounting. The WBAR is available as a 1-gang or 2-gang model, WBAR1G/2G, and has an adjustability range of 1/4" to 1-1/4”. Adjustments can be made before and after installation and infinite extensions can be added in 3/4" increments providing a flush finish wherever wall depths are unknown.

           Finally, the Simple Support Bracket is available preassembled with a UMA and 4” or 4-11/16” square box with a 10” pigtail.
