DESCRIPTION
The Andrew Corporation Type 180 1.8m Offset Antenna is a rugged commercial grade
product suitable for the most demanding applications. The reflector is thermoset-molded for
strength and surface accuracy. Molded into the rear of the reflector is a network of support
ribs which not only strengthens the antenna, but also helps to sustain its critical parabolic
shape.

The Az/El mount is constructed from heavy-gauge steel to provide a rigid support to the
reflector. Four heavy-duty lockdown bolts secure the mount to any 4.50 in. O.D. mast and
prevent slippage in high winds. A specially formulated powder paint process offers excellent
protection from weather-related corrosion. Hot-dip galvanizing is optional for extreme
environmental conditions.
