Product Information
Full details
The ARCTIC W1A is a versatile black monitor wall mount designed for users seeking to optimize their workspace and improve ergonomics. Its key benefit is providing smooth, 3-axis articulation for precise screen positioning, reducing strain and maximizing desk space. A potential caveat is its VESA compatibility being limited to 75x75mm and 100x100mm, which may not suit all monitors. This mount supports single displays from 13" to 30", offers 360° rotation, 60° swivel, and ±15° tilt, and can hold up to 20 kg, featuring integrated cable management.

Mounting screws do not fit the monitor

Limited range of motion
Confirm that all locking mechanisms and adjustment screws are loosened appropriately. Ensure the monitor is not obstructing the movement.
