The Chief FCA1S Fusion Single Stud Adaptor solves a common installation problem: a display needs to go where only one wood stud is available. Several Chief Fusion medium wall mounts are designed for dual-stud attachment, and Chief's Fusion wall mount literature notes that the MSM1U and MTM1U are dual-stud only unless the FCA1S is added. With the adaptor in place, the mount can be centered on a single stud, giving installers more freedom to position the display where the room layout calls for it rather than where the framing happens to fall. Chief's published load rating for the MSM1U and MTM1U applies to dual-stud mounting, and the single-stud rating for this adaptor is not published in the online catalog, so check the mount's installation instructions for the allowable load on a single stud before installing. The wall mount and display are not included.

Ideal Applications

Compatibility
Chief identifies the FCA1S as the single-stud option for the Fusion MSM1U and MTM1U wall mounts. Confirm compatibility with other mounts and the single-stud weight limit in the mount's installation manual.
