Can I mount a 55 inch Visio tv, weight 37 pounds, using this system on a single stud?

you can if it is an ultra thin smart tv like 1.5 inches thick i would not mount a traditional size flat tv with this

Absolutely. Only one stud is needed to mount, as the bracket runs vertical.

I use my mount with a 42" VISIO. The mount is very strong and well built. Made in America. I love it. The weak Link is tying it into the wall. I used my own 3" screws to tie it into the wall studs. Take the time to make sure that you anchor it well.

I have mine rigged to stand alone. It holds my 55" very well. If you mount against a wall I would not hesitate to go to 60".

Not sure bud. My tv was 66lbs and sagged pretty badly. It's not the base plate that goes in the wall, it's the extended plate that the tv rests on. I would *guess* that 30 lbs might be ok? I went with. $200+ peerless mount and am MUCH happier.

If the weight was spread out over 3 shelves, yes. One shelf holding 25-30 lbs will cause that shelf to flex too much unless you put braces in between the shelves. The mount itself would hold if you attach it to the stud instead of using drywall anchors.

I would assume so. We have a 55" Samsung mounted on it with no problem. I think you can go up to 60. It's an awesome mount, great swivel, very sturdy.

I my opinion its will work. I has mount a 55 inches and felt very solid. The key thing is make sure mount on the wall studs and you will fine. Good Luck!

i dont think so thats quite a bit of weight for one stud and the 3 screws that come with it judging the way this is installed i think you need to spread the weight with a mount that uses 2 studs to anchor plus this mountig bracket articulates ie it swings out which increases the leverage and puts more stress on the anchor points at nearly 100 lbs i would think a more stationary mount would be more stable You might want to Google large flat tv mounting systems good luck in your search and enjoy that new led tv!

I'm using it to hold a 40" Visio TV without any problem. The key is to be sure that you sink mounting screws into studs and don't rely on just drywall to support the weight. The instructions say to screw all four corners into studs. That's fine, if that places the TV where you want it on the wall. It didn't for me. So, I positioned the mount where I wanted it and sunk two lag screws through slots in the mount directly into the center of a stud. I then used screws fastened into drywall anchors at the four corners. Works fine. The two stud-mounted lag screws provide way more than enough strength to support the weight of the TV and the drywall anchors prevent any twisting torque from being exerted.

Yes...this is heavy duty...great for bigger TVs, but if you are hanging a 35" I would either consider another mount, or, better yet, get a bigger TV :-)

I screwed it to the studs; It has been holding my 55" TV for over 4 years. Hanging over 70 pound on a drywall, without studs, may bring the wall and TV down.

Ed, I am 99% sure it won't go over three studs. FYI, I have steel studs and did not secure it to any studs. I used "Toogler" brand toggle bolts to secure it to the wall sold at Lowes. (Google Toggler) I have an older 55" Viszio TV (31 lbs ) attached for nearly 4 years and it is snug as a bug. I used Sanus's interactive installation guide to determine the height and I was able to install it exactly where I wanted it - no guessing. Good Luck!

If properly installed the weight should not be a problem. The problem will undoubtably come from the mounting purchases on the new TV.

This mount did not work for my 32 inch Sony Bravia - the brackets were too wide and extended beyond the TV. So I don't know the weight limit but definitely check the width of the brackets

I would not try it. First, the name specifically states, "32-55 inch." Second, with my 55" LG, there is noticeable sway in the main pillar when I adjust the angle of the screen. I believe any more weight (I believe I'm around 40lbs), may snap the pillar.Though I have not measured to see it it could accomidate your mounting specifications, I would not risk it. Lastly, black glass shelving is a total pain. It seems to magnify every speck of dust.

I would not recommend it with this model. I have a 37 in Visio on mine, in the exercise room, and never move the tv. This mount is just too small. Look at the dimensions and compare with other Cheetah mounts. Spend a few extra $$ and get the APDAM2B.
