the vehicle surface free from blemishes or pene-

trations (does not detract from your car’s resale

value). When you need to move or remove the

system, it leaves behind no rusted holes that

require body work or repainting. Many people

have multi-car families—it’s reassuring to know

you can switch systems between vehicles when-

ever your requirements change.

• High adhesion strength results from the large sur-

face area and high vacuum obtained from the

quality suction cups. (Climbers scale buildings and

workers carry plate glass using similar high-qual-

ity, commercial suction devices.

• Safely absorbs vibration and cyclic loads while dri-

ving. The silicone content of the cups absorbs the

stress and strains imparted by impact with road

bumps and potholes that causes premature failure

of nuts, bolts, or sheet metal screws used in con-

ventional systems. This principle applies in mili-

tary and commercial installation through the use

of “shock mounts.” The large size of the box and

spacing of the suction cup/feet spread these

forces out over a larger surface area for maximum

safety and strength.

• Noise insulation : the suction cups dampen the

noise and vibration from the QMS box and anten-

na that would otherwise be conducted to the

vehicle body through mechanical joints, affording

quieter operation.

• The tie-down strap and suction cups work hand-in-

hand as a constant-tension system. The tie-down

strap tension keeps the cups compressed so their

vacuum holds the QMS in place; the flexibility
