RAM MOUNTS Tough-Claw Medium Clamp Ball Base

Name steht für Qualität. Hält bombenfest.

Mount used to stabilize trolling motor on front deck of bay boat!

This is rather large. That is good for me, but could be a con for others. The clamp design has two different curves on each arm. Presumably, this is designed in to allow for a wide range of pipe sizes. However, this means it will not hold excellent to any size. You have to really tighten this thing down to get it to hold well-enough. The pipe I am clamping to is right in the middle of the stated range. I feel like it should hold a little better for something right in the middle of its range.Its mostly plastic or composite. Some metal parts. Rubber-e ball.Rating. 1 star deduct because this is crazy expensive for what it is. These should cost $13-$15. Thats it.

I saw a guy on YouTube use this as a bow holder on his kayak for bow fishing. I haven’t field tested it myself but the working load per RAM is four lbs, and that is what my SandShark by FinFinder weighs. I’ll let you know how the practical/field test goes and update.

Best mounting system for my mobility scooter's iPad. Got my original set for use while amongst my students to control my clumped from my iPad. Most brands worked well in the classroom. But I went through three other brandswhich all slipped when I'd go on wildlife refuge gravel trails. Not RAM Mount, all aspects of the equipment held my iPad right where I wanted it. My wife had to have a set for herself. We are both firm believers in RAM products. People always want to know what the system is I'm using. And neither of us can wait to say RAM Mounts. No one asked or provided products or financial Insentives to myself or family.
