Svensen - Triple Arm TV bracket

[paroli]

When we bought our MH (2nd hand) there was a triple arm TV mount installed. We have now bought a TV (Avtex 18.5") and it is attached and working. The bracket is however showing age (and droop) and I have been considering renewing it.

I have however been unsuccessful in finding it. Looking at pictures etc it is clearly a Svensen bracket (it has a little spirit level attached) but I have only found single or twin arm brackets online of a similar design. Does anyone know whether there has there ever been a triple arm bracket (or was mine cobbled together) - and whether they can still be found anywhere?

With the layout of the van, the ability to swing the TV right round means it can be viewed either from the front or the back of the van and I don't think that twin arms will work.

Thanks

Patrick

Vision Plus does a three arm TV bracket.

pop off the plastic covers on each joint and tighten up the bolts, usually a hex key. if it keeps working loose, remove the bolt, apply thread lock and tighten again

I've found you often need to do that with new brackets .

Thanks all. I can tighten the bolts etc but the plastic/rubber washers between the arms are starting to deteriorate and tear. I may need to try to find something to make some new washers from - any ideas?
Thanks

probably nylon sheet and cut with a hole saw to get discs the right size then drill the centers
