How much of a "lip" does it require to mount it on a desk? I.e., what is the diameter of the clamp portion of the platform? Thanks.

It looks to be 2 inches deep, and looks like it will work on a desk surface up to 1.5 inches thick. The bottom portion of the clamp (the part that screws to tighten) also has a roughly 2 inch pad. So it has a fair amount of surface area to hold it in place.

Not much lip required at all. My desk top is less than 1" thick and it works fine (probably would work with less thickness).

Ideally you want a 2" lip, although you can mount it with 1.5". The diameter of the clamp is just under 1.5". You can mount it on the front or side of the desk. I have mine mounted on the front of a computer tray table. It swivels nicely under the table when not in use (mouse and all).

About 1.75 inches. I attach it to the Keyboard tray that is below the desk. That way the mouse and the keyboard are at the same shoulder to elbow distance. Less strain on the shoulders.

I just took a look at one of those desks and have to say that the answer is NO.You are asking for trouble as the only way to mount it would be with the clamp coming into contact with the glass somehow.You might be better off getting the wall mount version of this mount if that would work for you?LX Wall Mount LCD Arm

The clamp goes about 5" under the desk, length wise. It allows about 4" thickness of desk/clamp total. Does that make any sense?

Just installed one of these. Without taking a tape measure I'm guessing the center of the monitor mount is 18 to 20 inches off the desk. The unit may even go higher I have it over a mixing console and it is well above equipment and not full height.

Clamp range is 0" to 2-1/4". I bought mine for the Studio Designs drafting table. It is attached to the table's frame and it is rock solid. The clamp is not weak at all, and there is plenty of light if you place it over your work. Not sure what everyone else is complaining about.

The center post is about 1-1/2" - The 4" clamp refers to the base that clamps on to the desk - that is 4" wide and 4" deep

My desk is pretty close to the wall, I had to slide the mount into place from the side to get it onto the desk. As for the L Clamp, I'm using the bottom two holes, and i had to crawl under my desk and screw in both bolts to clamp down on the desk. There is no way to modify or change the physical mounting point to the desk and how it functions that I am aware of. My desk has a back board, but it is recessed to create a lip that I was able to clamp onto. I wish I could take pictures to explain but, the top surface of the desk is only about 2 inches from the wall, the back board is maybe about 4 inches give or take from the wall. Hope that helps somewhat!

I have a Galant desk and use this stand with 3 24" asus LED monitors on it. It should do fine unless you are placing the clamp near a corner on the desk... but for good measure I would add a support underneath, like a 2x4 or something. The clamp opens up very wide so you'll be able to add a bit of stiff material underneath to help the desktop support it.

There is a c- clamp type for the edge of the desk. Or it has another mount if you want to drill into your desk for a better position. Comes with both. Works great on the edge, that is how I use it.

Hello Daniel, It is recommended the desk be between 15mm (0.59 inches) and 55mm (2.17 inches) thick, and be strong enough to support the weight of your monitor. This is another monitor mount of ours. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EQ7HTG6 It'll fit desks just under 4" thick with the clamp and about 3.75" with the bolt option. If you can purchase a longer bolt from a hardware store, you should be able to get this mount to fit a thicker desk. We also have a listing that has more on the way: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B21TLQU If you can wait a few days, this listing will be stocked with our inventory. It will fit a 4" desk. It might fit a 4.1". I hope this was of help. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thank you, Taylor W. VIVO

The mounting bracket is 3 7/8" wide. It is in 2 parts with the bottom portion being held in place by the 2 screws you mention. That portion can be removed and reattached at several spots to accommodate desks with varying thicknesses. However this only allows for adjusting the size of the "C" the clamp makes for different desk sizes. With the bottom bracket removed you still have an inverted "L" shape at the base that is permanently attached. In other words if you are hoping to be able to have just the pole without the mount at all, this would not be possible.

I believe the clamp will work on your desk. The range of the clamp is 3/32" to 2-3/8", so your desk would be close to the lower clamp limit. There is a small layer of foam on the top part of the clamp, but you'd probably want to add a flat piece of rubber or other insulation on both sides of the desk where you clamp, to protect the desk and maybe help a little with vibrations.

3 inches is enough room, although the clamp has a throat of about 3.5 inches. I had to screw a block to the back side of my desk that I clamped the mount to. The block is only 3 inches deep, and it works perfectly.

Technically, you can get it to drop below the desk surface by adjusting the locking teeth (inconvenient) that allow for clamping to a thicker desk surface. That could get you maybe 3/4 inch below (and the upper limit would be correspondingly reduced).

Thats about how much is actually clamped onto my desk too, just make sure you use tools to tighten the clamp, I should also note, I modified the arms on mine to go 3 wide, on a 6x6 monitor system

There is a 1/2 inch lip. The keyboard tray mounts to the longer piece of the desk, it does not look like there is an option to mount on the other side, which would be the side with the seam where the long and short pieces fit together.

8" Deep 12" Wide Tip to Tip. I use this mount on a thin form Asus Monitor and I have it hanging off the back of my desk almost 2" and its very stable. That means its only taking up 6" of desk space. Couldn't be happier with this stand.
