Which Happs Mounting Plate Part Number?

[pmc]

I just bought a used 3" Betson Imperial PS/2 TB. I'm pretty sure it'll come naked so I need to order a mounting plate kit. I want to mount it in 3/4" MDF.

I know that the Happs mounting kits are compatible, but also want to make sure I order the right one. It looks like part number 55-0321-00 is the right one? I'm comparing it to 55-1101-00 which is, perhaps, just the plate?

TIA

55-1101-00 is the 3" mounting plate only with a black powder coat paint finish on it. I don't know what the other number is since it's not shown in my 2001 catalog.

Thanks Ken. I found the mounting kit on the Happs site here.

If I can mount the trackball to the plate alone, maybe I don't need that kit? Does the plate come with screws and standoffs or do I have to go size and acquire my own?

I just looked again at Happ's site and it looks like 55-1101-00 is the mounting kit that comes with screws and everything ($12.95). 56-5530-00 ($7.75) appears to be the naked plate alone. So I think I want the mounting kit. I don't think that I need 55-0321-00 which they call the 3" Golden Tee & PGA Tour Kit ($10). Looks like it's for a specific application and not appropriate for what I need.

But this differs from your catalog lookup for some reason.

55-1101-00 mounting kit is what you want.  It will come with everything you need to mount your Betson in the 3/4" MDF.
