The Rigid Conduit Gong Stand Kit gives you the bracket hardware needed to build a customizable steel target stand using locally sourced 1" rigid conduit. Buy and cut the conduit to fit your range, terrain and preferred target height instead of paying to ship long sections of heavy tubing. The kit is designed specifically for 1" rigid conduit and will not work with EMT or standard plumbing pipe. Shoot Steel manufactures the bracket hardware in the United States.
Assembly requires cutting the conduit to length, measuring 1.5" from each tube end, drilling a 5/16" hole and deburring the cut ends. Once assembled, the stand supports a single gong target up to 75 lbs. If you prefer a system with the conduit already cut and prepared, see the 60"x60" Rigid Conduit Gong Stand.
For hanging your target, use the Steel Chain Mounting Kit or the 8" Rubber Chain Gong Target Mounting Kit. See additional Shoot Steel stands and target systems on the Shoot Steel YouTube channel.

Safety and Usage
Minimum shooting distance and caliber compatibility are determined by the target plate used with this stand. The stand supports targets up to 75 lbs and is intended for target setups rated through .338 Lapua Magnum. Do not exceed the stand's target-weight rating or the rating of the target and hanging hardware being used.
Inspect the conduit, brackets, hardware and target-hanging components before every session. Replace any component showing deformation, cracking or excessive wear. Follow the shooting-distance and ammunition requirements for the specific target installed on the stand. Always use quality eye and ear protection.

The stand is rated to support a target up to 75 lbs. Always make sure the target and hanging hardware are also appropriate for the firearm and ammunition being used.
