    Abstract: The present disclosure describes an antenna mount kit. The antenna mount kit includes an antenna mount and a pipe clamp coupled to the antenna mount. The pipe clamp includes a front shell half and a rear shell half, the front shell half and the rear shall half having a front shell half inner surface and a rear shell half inner surface configured to cooperate with each other such that the mounting structure can be secured within the pipe clamp, at least two threaded bolts, a plurality of washers, and a plurality of nuts. The antenna mount kit may further include at least two isolation fasteners. The front shell half inner surface and the rear shell half inner surface each include a plurality of jagged teeth formed of a non-metallic material, at least two front shell bolt apertures through the front shell half, and at least two rear shell half bolt apertures through the rear shell half. The front shell half bolt apertures align with the rear shell half bolt apertures when securing the mounting structure within the pipe clamp. Antenna mount assemblies and methods for reducing external passive intermodulation from an antenna mount kit are also provided.
