How is the RAM Mounts suction base RAM-224U constructed?
The RAM Mounts suction base with diamond base plate and C-ball twist-lock consists of two main components that are supplied unassembled. The suction-base housing with an 83.82 mm diameter features a twist-lock for secure holding on smooth surfaces. The diamond base plate, trapezoid-shaped, is made of powder-coated aluminum and carries a C-ball with a 38.1 mm diameter. The two components can be assembled individually and combined with other RAM Mounts elements. The suction cup, made of high-strength composite with a rubber suction face, provides reliable adhesion on non-porous surfaces such as windshields or smooth plastic.
Which mounting surfaces are suitable for the suction base?
The RAM Mounts suction base RAM-224U adheres best to smooth, non-porous surfaces. Windshields, with their smooth glass surface, provide ideal conditions for a reliable suction-cup mounting. Smooth plastic surfaces in vehicle cockpits, on boats, or on machinery are also well suited. The twist-lock creates a strong vacuum that remains reliable even under vibration and changing temperature conditions. For textured or porous surfaces, an alternative mounting method such as an adhesive disk or screw-mount is recommended.
What is the diamond base plate with trapezoid shape used for?
The diamond base plate in trapezoid shape is a versatile mounting component in the RAM Mounts system. With its standardized hole spacing of 48.56 mm and dimensions of 33.27 x 61.72 mm, it can be screwed to various surfaces. The C-ball is mounted perpendicular to the plate and allows attachment of swivel arms, mounts, and other system components. The trapezoid shape provides a stable base with minimal space requirement and is suitable for vehicles, boats, offices, and industrial applications. The powder-coated aluminum protects the plate from corrosion and wear.
