4 Fixture 90 Degree Bullhorn Mount | 2 3/8 Inch Tenon | Bronze

Product Overview

This 4 Fixture 90 Degree Bullhorn Mount is designed for mounting up to four light fixtures on a single pole, each positioned at 90-degree intervals. It is intended for use with a 2 3/8 inch tenon and finished in bronze for compatibility with most commercial and architectural site lighting standards. The mount supports distributed fixture placement for area and post top lighting layouts, commonly seen in parking lots, pedestrian areas, and architectural site environments.

The bullhorn configuration allows for even coverage around the pole, reducing shadowing and supporting uniform light distribution. With a 1.5 EPA rating and a weight of 39 lbs, this accessory is suitable for use on poles rated for multi-fixture mounting in exterior environments.

Core Performance and Output

This bullhorn mount supports four fixtures, each oriented at 90 degrees, enabling full 360-degree site coverage from a single pole location. The 2 3/8 inch tenon interface is compatible with standard slipfitter and yoke-mount fixtures used in post top and area lighting applications. The 1.5 EPA rating defines the effective projected area for wind load calculations, ensuring structural compatibility with most commercial-grade poles rated for multi-fixture use.

When loaded with four fixtures, total EPA and weight must be considered in pole selection and installation. Excessive fixture size or weight beyond the mount?s and pole?s ratings can compromise structural integrity, especially in high wind zones. The mount is not intended for use with fixtures exceeding the combined EPA or weight limits of the pole and accessory.

Adjustability and Control Options

Each arm of the bullhorn provides a fixed 90-degree orientation from the pole center, supporting symmetrical fixture placement. Fixture aiming is determined by the mounting hardware and fixture design; the bullhorn itself does not provide tilt or rotational adjustment beyond the fixed arm positions.

Control options such as photocells, motion sensors, or networked controls are determined by the fixtures installed on the bullhorn, not by the mount itself. Ensure that fixture wiring and control integration are planned prior to installation, as access to wiring may be limited once fixtures are mounted.

Longevity and Reliability

The mount is constructed for exterior use with a bronze finish that resists corrosion and weathering in typical site lighting environments. The welded steel construction supports long-term structural reliability when installed according to pole and fixture load ratings.

Routine inspection of mounting hardware and fixture connections is recommended, especially in areas subject to vibration or high wind. The 1-year warranty covers material and workmanship for the accessory itself; fixture and pole warranties are separate and must be considered independently.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

This bullhorn mount is fabricated from steel and finished in bronze powder coat for durability and visual consistency with most commercial poles and fixtures. The total weight is 39 lbs, which must be included in pole load calculations. The 2 3/8 inch tenon interface is standard for post top and area lighting applications.

The 1.5 EPA rating is critical for wind load analysis and should be combined with the EPA of all attached fixtures to determine total system requirements. All welds and mounting points are designed for secure, vibration-resistant installation in outdoor environments.

Where This Product Fits Best

This bullhorn mount is intended for exterior site lighting where multiple fixtures are required on a single pole to achieve uniform area coverage. It is commonly used in commercial, municipal, and architectural settings that require distributed lighting from a central location.

• parking lot lighting
• area lighting
• architectural site lighting
• pedestrian area lighting
• campus lighting
• commercial site lighting

The mount is suitable for environments where pole-mounted fixtures must be oriented in four directions. It is not intended for use in environments with extreme corrosive exposure or where pole and accessory EPA ratings are exceeded.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires a compatible pole with a 2 3/8 inch tenon and sufficient structural rating for the combined weight and EPA of the mount and fixtures. Secure attachment is achieved using standard set screws or bolts, depending on pole and mount design. All wiring should be completed prior to fixture installation to ensure safe and efficient assembly.

Long-term use depends on periodic inspection of mounting hardware and fixture connections, especially in high wind or high traffic areas. Overloading the mount or pole beyond rated EPA or weight limits can result in structural failure. Always verify total system load before installation.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

The 4 fixture bullhorn is typically installed at mounting heights ranging from 15 to 30 feet, depending on fixture type and site requirements. Fixtures are spaced at 90-degree intervals for even coverage, reducing the number of poles required for large area lighting.

Spacing between poles is determined by fixture output and site lighting criteria. Using higher output fixtures can reduce the total number of poles but may increase glare or require careful aiming. Always confirm that the combined EPA and weight of all fixtures and accessories do not exceed the pole?s rated capacity.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This mount is designed for exterior use and meets standard commercial site lighting accessory requirements. The 1.5 EPA rating supports wind load calculations for code compliance. The bronze finish provides corrosion resistance in typical outdoor environments.

The product includes a 1-year warranty covering material and workmanship. No additional certifications are specified for this accessory. Always follow local codes and standards for pole and fixture installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum EPA and weight this bullhorn can support?

A: The bullhorn itself is rated at 1.5 EPA and weighs 39 lbs. Total allowable load depends on the pole?s rating and the combined EPA and weight of all attached fixtures.

Q: What tenon size is required for installation?

A: This mount is designed for a 2 3/8 inch tenon, which is standard for most commercial and site lighting poles.

Q: Can fixtures be aimed or adjusted after installation?

A: The bullhorn arms are fixed at 90-degree intervals. Fixture aiming depends on the mounting hardware and fixture design, not the bullhorn itself.

Q: Is this mount suitable for coastal or corrosive environments?

A: The bronze finish provides standard corrosion resistance, but it is not intended for extreme corrosive or marine environments.

Q: How should I plan pole spacing and fixture layout with this mount?

A: Pole spacing depends on fixture output, mounting height, and site lighting requirements. Always calculate total EPA and weight to ensure pole and mount ratings are not exceeded.

Application Questions and Clarification

Q: Can this bullhorn be used for sports field lighting?

A: This mount is intended for area, parking lot, and architectural site lighting. It is not designed for sports field lighting applications that require specialized aiming or higher EPA ratings.

Q: What types of fixtures are compatible with this bullhorn?

A: Fixtures with slipfitter or yoke mounts designed for 2 3/8 inch tenons are compatible, provided total EPA and weight limits are observed.

Q: Is this accessory compatible with wood or fiberglass poles?

A: This mount is designed for use with steel or aluminum poles equipped with a 2 3/8 inch tenon. Compatibility with wood or fiberglass poles depends on the tenon adapter and pole rating.
