Know before you buy
Yes, the base is specifically designed to adapt to both flat and curved surfaces, making it a versatile choice for various interior vehicle locations.
This mount is rated for a maximum load capacity of 2 lbs, which is sufficient for most standard smartphones and smaller mobile devices.
The mount uses a high-strength double-sided adhesive. While it provides a secure, long-term hold, it is intended to be a semi-permanent solution, so you should ensure the placement is correct before applying it.
This product includes the adhesive base and the 1-inch ball, but it does not include the socket arm or the phone cradle. You will need to pair it with a compatible RAM 1-inch ball socket arm to complete your setup.
The kit includes an alcohol prep pad to clean the mounting surface. For the best results, ensure the area is completely free of dust, oils, or cleaning residue before applying the adhesive.
