The Chief CMS261W is a column cut-off adapter for Chief's CMS extension column system. When a fixed column has to be trimmed on site to hit a precise projector or display height, the cut end loses its factory thread; this adapter fits that end and provides a 1-1/2-inch NPT threaded connection so the column can again join Chief ceiling plates, couplers and mounts. That lets installers carry standard column lengths and cut to the exact drop in the field instead of waiting on a custom part. The adapter is rated to 500 lbs (226.8 kg), matching the load class of Chief's CMS columns, and has a compact 4.5-inch body sized to the 2.3-inch column profile. The white finish matches Chief's white columns. Chief lists it as not TAA compliant. Column, plate and mount are sold separately. Follow Chief's installation instructions for securing the adapter to the cut column.
