Know before you buy
The arm is designed to support monitors weighing up to 42 lbs and screens up to 42 inches. As long as your display falls within these weight and size limits, the arm will provide stable, adjustable support.
Yes, the HX includes both a desk clamp and a grommet mount. The clamp allows you to attach the arm to the edge of most standard desks without needing to drill any holes.
Yes, the mount supports full rotation, allowing you to easily switch your monitor between landscape and portrait orientations. This is particularly useful for coding, reading long documents, or specific creative workflows.
The rotation-stop feature limits the arm's range of motion to 180 degrees. This prevents the monitor from swinging back too far and hitting a wall or other office furniture behind your desk.
The arm features integrated channels that route your power and video cables along the underside of the arm. This keeps your cords organized and out of sight, creating a cleaner, more streamlined workspace.
The Ergotron HX Desk Monitor Arm is backed by a 10-year warranty. This reflects the product's durability, which has been tested to withstand 10,000 cycles of motion.
