Gourd Mounting Arms – Vertical Style
Vertical Gourd Mounting Arms are designed for Purple Martin gourds that use a side-to-side hanging hole through the neck of the gourd. They attach to compatible gourd racks that use aluminum angle arms or circular rings, giving landlords another way to position gourds on their rack systems.
Two Vertical Styles Available
There are two styles of Vertical Gourd Mounting Arms. Each is designed for a specific mounting position, so choose the arm that matches your rack and desired gourd location.
Vertical Straight – GMAVS
The Vertical Straight arm is used with SuperGourds and natural gourds that have been drilled side to side through the neck. With this mounting style, the gourd entrance is positioned directly below the gourd mounting arm.
The GMAVS is used on the inner arm position of the angle arms on the Super System 24 and AAA 16. It can also be used on the rings of the Gemini and Round Rack.
Vertical 90° – GMAV90
The Vertical 90° arm is also designed for SuperGourds and natural gourds with a side-to-side hanging hole. This arm is used when you want the gourd entrance to face outward and away from the pole.
The GMAV90 is used on the outermost arm position of the angle arms on the Super System 24 and AAA 16.
Please Note: The GMAV90 is not compatible with the Gemini.
What's Included with Each Gourd Mounting Arm
- One 3/8-inch solid aluminum gourd mounting arm
- One 1/4-20 x 3/4-inch stainless-steel mounting bolt
- One stainless-steel nut
- One stainless-steel hitch pin to secure the gourd
Gourd Compatibility
Vertical Gourd Mounting Arms are designed for gourds with a neck up to approximately 3 inches in diameter at the hanging hole. They work especially well with SuperGourds and natural gourds that have been drilled side to side through the neck.

Choose the Arm That Matches Your Mounting Position
Use the Vertical Straight arm for inner mounting positions and compatible ring systems. Use the Vertical 90° arm when you want the gourd entrance facing outward from the pole. Matching the correct arm style to the rack position helps keep your gourds properly oriented and evenly arranged.
