Know before you buy
Yes, the 3.25-inch twist-lock suction cup is designed to create a powerful vacuum seal on smooth, non-porous surfaces like windshields. It is engineered to withstand vehicle vibrations, provided the surface is clean and properly prepped.
Absolutely. The mount utilizes a 1-inch ball and socket system that allows you to rotate, tilt, and pivot your tablet to achieve the perfect viewing angle. Simply loosen the adjustment knob, position the device, and tighten it back down to lock it in place.
The universal X-Grip cradle is designed to fit most 10-inch tablets, provided the total weight of the device does not exceed 2 lbs (907 grams). It is best to measure your tablet's width and depth to ensure it fits within the cradle's expansion range.
No, this is a passive mounting solution. It does not include USB ports or integrated charging capabilities, so you will need to use your device's own charging cable if you need to power it while mounted.
The suction cup requires a smooth, non-porous surface to maintain a reliable seal. It will not adhere securely to textured dashboards, fabric, or porous materials, so a windshield or a dedicated smooth adhesive mounting disk is recommended.
This product is backed by a lifetime manufacturer's warranty. RAM Mounts is known for its durability, and the warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship, ensuring long-term reliability for your setup.
