Know before you buy
Yes, the spring-loaded X-Grip is designed to accommodate tablets within the 6.25" to 8.1" width range, provided the total depth of the device and case does not exceed 0.875 inches.
Absolutely. The mount is constructed from marine-grade aluminum and features a vibration-damping design, making it ideal for high-vibration environments like marine consoles, fleet vehicles, and field service equipment.
The mount uses two 2.5-inch round AMPS bases that must be permanently screwed into a flat, stable surface. This provides a secure, heavy-duty connection that is much more stable than suction or clamp-based alternatives.
Yes, the double ball-and-socket system allows for near-infinite adjustability. You can easily tilt, rotate, and pivot your tablet to achieve the perfect viewing angle for your specific workspace.
The X-Grip is engineered to hold the tablet by its edges, leaving the screen, buttons, and ports accessible. You should be able to charge your device and use its features without removing it from the mount.
The support keepers are rubberized tethering components that provide extra security for your tablet. They are recommended for use in high-vibration or outdoor environments to ensure the device remains firmly in the grip.
