What Are Light Pole Tenon Adapters?

Light pole tenon adapters are specialized mounting bracket accessories designed to extend the mounting capacity of light poles. These versatile components transform a single-fixture pole into a multi-fixture mounting solution, allowing for additional lighting fixtures, security cameras, or signage to be installed on existing poles. This makes them ideal for enhancing outdoor lighting setups. Tenon adapters securely attach to the pole’s top or side, providing a stable platform that maintains structural integrity while expanding your lighting system’s capabilities.

Types of Tenon Adapters

There are several types of mounting bracket accessories available, including pole tenon adapters, reducers, and slipfitter mounts, each designed to accommodate specific pole sizes and lighting fixtures. Pole tenon adapters are designed for use with round poles and provide a secure connection for lighting fixtures. Reducers are used to adapt larger pole sizes to smaller ones, allowing for greater flexibility in lighting installation.

Slipfitter mounts are a type of tenon adapter that provides adjustability and ease of installation, making them ideal for applications where the lighting fixture needs to be positioned at a specific angle. Tenon adapters can be made from various materials, including steel and aluminum, which provide durability and resistance to corrosion. The choice of tenon adapter type depends on the specific lighting application, pole size, and desired level of adjustability.

Tenon adapters are available in various quantities, allowing customers to purchase the exact amount needed for their project. When selecting a tenon adapter, it is essential to consider the product specifications, including the pole size, lighting fixture type, and material, to ensure a proper fit and reliable performance. Tenon adapters can be used with a wide range of lighting fixtures, including LED flood lights, shoebox lights, and area lights, making them a versatile solution for outdoor lighting needs.
