Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which Uniden marine radios is the MKM200 bracket compatible with?

A: The MKM200 flush mount bracket is compatible with three specific Uniden marine VHF radios: UM455, UM355, and UM255 models only. It will NOT fit UHF CB radios (UH series, XTRAK series, X76, etc.), mobile radios, or other marine radio models outside these three specific models. The bracket is precision-engineered for these UM series radios' dimensions and mounting points. Always verify your marine radio is one of these three compatible models before purchasing the MKM200 bracket.

Q: Does this bracket include the marine radio or do I need to purchase it separately?

A: The MKM200 is a mounting bracket ONLY - the marine VHF radio is NOT included and must be purchased separately or already owned. This bracket is designed for users installing new marine radios, upgrading existing radios, or replacing damaged/lost mounting brackets for compatible UM455, UM355, or UM255 radios. If you need both radio and bracket, we can provide package recommendations. Contact us for complete marine radio installation packages including radio and mounting hardware.

Q: Can I install this bracket myself or do I need professional marine installation?

A: Experienced boat owners with proper tools can install the MKM200 bracket, as installation involves cutting appropriate-sized opening in console/dash and securing bracket with included hardware. However, professional marine installation is strongly recommended because: (1) proper weatherproofing and sealing prevents water intrusion into helm; (2) correct cable routing protects connections from moisture; (3) marine electrical standards compliance ensures safety; (4) professional cutting prevents damage to expensive helm consoles; (5) proper grounding and antenna connection critical for radio performance. Marine installers have experience with weatherproofing, cable management, and marine-specific requirements ensuring reliable operation.

Q: Is the white colour suitable for all boat interiors or will it look mismatched?

A: White is the most common colour for marine electronics and helm equipment, making the MKM200 white bracket suitable for vast majority of boats regardless of interior colour. White matches standard Uniden marine radios (which are white), coordinates with most marine electronics, GPS units, and fish finders (typically white or light colours), and provides clean professional appearance on both white and dark helm surfaces. If your vessel has predominantly black or dark helm equipment, the white bracket will still integrate professionally as most marine VHF radios themselves are white regardless of mounting bracket colour.

Q: What's included in the "mounting screws and caps" hardware kit?

A: The MKM200 includes complete mounting hardware necessary for flush-mount installation: marine-grade stainless steel or corrosion-resistant screws appropriate for securing bracket to console/dash surface, and decorative caps that cover screw heads for clean finished appearance. The exact quantity and specifications are designed for the bracket's mounting points. However, additional supplies may be needed depending on installation: sealant/caulk for weatherproofing, backing plates if mounting to thin fiberglass, or longer screws if mounting through thick surfaces. Professional installers assess specific installation requirements and provide appropriate marine-grade materials for complete weatherproof installation.
