What is the RAM Mounts connecting arm with a 180° swivel joint suitable for?
The RAM Mounts connecting arm for 1.5-inch C-balls with a centrally located 180° swivel joint (RAP-200-2U) offers, with its total length of approx. 210 mm, a generous reach for flexible mounting solutions. The centrally located swivel joint allows rotations of 180 degrees and features an Octagon connection to the connecting arm on both sides. This makes the arm ideal for applications where a lateral swiveling motion is required, for example for action cameras or navigation devices. The inner base-to-base distance is 166 mm and provides sufficient room for various mounting configurations.
What are the differences compared to the model with 360° rotation?
While the RAP-200-12U allows full 360° rotation, the RAP-200-2U offers a rotation limited to 180 degrees. This limitation can even be an advantage in certain installation situations, as it prevents unintentional twisting beyond the desired range. The longer overall length of 210 mm compared to 160 mm on the RAP-200-12U also provides more distance from the mounting point. Both models are made from the same high-strength composite material and use the proven Octagon connection system.
What typical application areas does the RAP-200-2U cover?
The RAP-200-2U connecting arm is excellently suited for mounting action cameras, GPS receivers, smartphones and radios in vehicles, on motorcycles and boats. The longer design allows devices to be positioned further away from the mounting point, which improves usability and visibility. With a weight of approx. 336 g, the arm remains light enough for mobile applications while offering the stability RAM Mounts is known for. The 30-year warranty rounds off the offering and provides security for long-term use.
