Rolatube
Rolatube Mission Mast Tactical Rollable Mast for Antennas and Cameras
Technical specifications
Technical overview
The Rolatube Mission Mast is the rollable carbon fiber tactical mast designed to elevate radio antennas, surveillance cameras, and communications repeaters to 4 meters height on any terrain in under 45 seconds of individual work, without tools or permanent anchors.
The carbon fiber rollable tube (CFRP) technology stores the mast in a flat 60 cm x 10 cm spool weighing only 1.8 kg total including stabilizers, allowing transport on the side of the tactical backpack or inside a light vehicle. When deployed, the tube recovers its structural rigidity of 8 kg tip payload capacity through the oval cross-section geometry that mechanically locks when opened.
The three stainless steel tip stabilizers with quick-adjust ball joints anchor the system on any surface — earth, gravel, asphalt, snow — without requiring shovels or tools. The universal head mount at the tip accepts adapters for VHF/UHF antennas, IP cameras up to 2 kg, radio repeaters, and weather sensors. The complete system fits in the included 60 cm transport case.
