FAQs

What is the maximum weight this kit can support?

Can this mount to a desk?

Yes, the clamp is designed to attach to flat objects up to 50mm thick using the included removable wedge.

What is the length of the magic arm?

The included adjustable magic arm measures 524mm (20.6in) in length.

Are the silicone pads replaceable?

Troubleshooting

Ensure the anti-deflection screw is fully tightened and that the payload does not exceed the 3kg limit.

The clamp slips on smooth surfaces.

Check that the silicone pads are clean and free of oil; ensure the clamp is tightened firmly against the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the kit, first determine if your mounting surface is round or flat. If mounting to a flat surface, ensure the removable wedge is properly positioned inside the clamp jaws to maximize surface contact. Secure the clamp by turning the tension knob until firm resistance is felt. Attach your accessory to the magic arm using the top screw.

For care, periodically inspect the silicone contact pads for debris to maintain optimal grip. Keep the aluminum joints clean and free of sand or grit. Should the arm lose tension over time, ensure the locking mechanisms are fully tightened and not obstructed by dust. When not in use, store in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the aluminum finish.
