Which mount do you have? A picture would help if you don't know the model.

If it's a Paw International mount they are normally rated for 30 lbs.

If that is Poly/plastic, it is a PAW mount and rated for 30 pounds as Bama Rambler mentioned.

PAW also makes a similar model out of metal.
It DOES NOT mate with the PAW Poly model but I have read they claim it is good for 40 pounds.

Thanks to the response. I’ll check if it’s metal or plastic. My main concern was pulling on wall behind bracket.

They supposedly put a solid wood backer behind the filon where the mount is located, so with the right screws it'll hold a lot more than the mount will.

Unless you plan to modify the mount and set the weight out away from the wall a good bit, it will hold just about any tv.

The design of the mount is for vertical shear. It really doesn't pull on the wall much unless you get the mass out away from the wall.
