RAM Mounting Systems Vertical Mounting Base with Swing Arm

This mount is designed specifically for vertical surfaces. You will need a sturdy, flat vertical area—like a wall, vehicle bulkhead, or workbench side—where you can securely bolt the base plate.

Yes, as long as your existing components are part of the 1.5-inch (C-Size) ball system. This mount is engineered specifically for that size, so it will integrate seamlessly with other RAM arms and cradles that share that same ball diameter.

The mount features two 6-inch arms, giving you a total reach of 12 inches from the mounting point. This allows you to extend your device well away from the wall or bulkhead and fold it back flush when it is not in use.

It is built for durability, but the weight capacity depends on the specific cradle and device you attach. Because it uses the 1.5-inch ball system, it is generally robust enough for tablets, GPS units, and other electronics, provided the mounting surface itself is strong enough to support the weight.

The swivel single socket and the arm joints rely on the tension of the RAM ball-and-socket system. Once you position your device, you tighten the knobs to lock the arms and ball joints firmly in place, preventing drift during use.
