Yaesu GS-680U Thrust Bearing
Yaesu GS-680U Thrust Bearing
The Yaesu GS-680U is a heavy-duty universal mast thrust bearing designed to provide structural support for rotating antenna masts in tower-mounted directional antenna installations. Installed above the rotator unit, the GS-680U offloads vertical and lateral wind-induced stress from the rotator—improving rotational stability and prolonging rotator service life.
Also referred to as a mast support bearing, the GS-680U stabilizes the antenna mast during rotation—ensuring smooth operation even when subjected to lateral wind thrust from large HF beam or VHF/UHF antenna arrays.
Ideal for use with:
-
HF Multi-Element Beam Antennas
-
Stacked Yagi Arrays
-
Satellite Communication Antennas
-
VHF/UHF Directional Arrays
-
DXA Series Yaesu Rotators
The GS-680U allows correction for minor mast tilt and can be installed without dismantling the antenna system—facilitating maintenance in fixed tower installations.
