Can this be used to hold an 8.5 lb. monitor so I can attach it to a mounting arm?(The monitor doesn't have mounting holes)

Maybe. There is a tendency for the tray to tip forward. If you mount the monitor so that the center of gravity is close to the pivot point you may be OK, especially if you really tighten the pivot bolt, but then you will not be able to adjust the angle without loosening the bolt. If you use a couple of strips of Velcro tape you should be able to prevent if from falling off.

I suppose you could zip tie it to the arm, but the holes are specifically for mount tray. Be advised this looks like it's just the tray, no arm included.

Yes, it can be done. I have three, one of which I use with the arms to hold my MacBook Pro and chilling pad. The other two actually do hold monitors which didn't have mounting holes. One monitor is over 9lbs and also has an additional arm extension. The two support fleets used to hold the laptop from sliding off are adjustable and rotate, they can extend outward up 15", which can take hold of your monitor sides or corners. The base of the tray also can swivel to a position and be locked. I did also utilize all the self adhesive grip pads they provide, and even put some on the support cradle arms. You can see more detailed pics from Ergotron's site on the back and such. Hope this helps. Yes, it can be done. I have three, one of which I use with the arms to hold my MacBook Pro and chilling pad.

No, it's primarily for notebooks only. Your monitor would end up facing the ceiling and each time you move the mount your monitor would fall off.

I'm not sure the weight of what it will hold, but my monitor is on mine, along with the speakers for my computer. This does not include what I keep in the little drawer, or the papers/folders I have on each side. This was the perfect product for me to lift up the monitor, and give me some "storage" area, with as small a footprint as could be.

Definitely. I have used this with 23" monitors before, and the mount held them perfectly. The mount can support up to 27" (which is my current configuration).

That will not be a problem at all because there is alot of threads on the two threaded screws that tighten the clamping plate to whatever you mount it to. For my application I took all of that apart and cut the bracket on my band saw so that I could drill the plate with three holes and bolt it rigid to the platform of my racing simulator seat and that enabled me to have three 27" monitors that were very stable any more questions feel free to ask.

Very easily. It is compatible with most universal monitor mounts. I have three of these as my current setup, all on the same stand.

I have a 27" that it holds nicely, however, I don't think it is the weight you should be concerned about. Too large a monitor will not give you the height or maneuverability that it is designed for.

I dont have experience with that, but if I were you, I would add some softer coushion (e.g. your old t-shirts/old mouse pads) between the clamp and the desk. Since glass is a quite stiff yet brittle material, it should support the mount+ monitors if you eliminate potential local stresses on the desk surface.

Possibly the brackets move so I would think so. My only concern would be the weight of the 27" on one side. Although the monitor stand is really heavy. I would give it a try.

Hello, yes this is a great dual monitor stand and will remain stable, and in its position if attached to a sit/stand table. The arms that hold the monitors are adjustable and have the ability to be loosened/tightened to your liking. I have used three different types and this is by far the best. You can mount on the side of a desk or through a grommet hole.

Yes, it will hold a monitor as long as it's not one of those old clunkers ;)

I'm not sure it would be very safe to do that if it's mounted just to 1/4" thick glass. If it was 5/8" or thicker it might work. There is a lot of force on the mounting area (the mount and monitors weight, plus the cantilever force from leverage). If you do mount it I would at a minimum put some kind of wood piece on the bottom to spread out the weight across a bigger area. Maybe a 6 inch wide piece of wood which is at least 1/2" thick, and runs out about 1 foot on each side? That might help and and not look too bad (you could paint it or something). The other problem is that glass doesn't do well when it is clamped hard. This thing gets tightened pretty tight and it may crack the glass.

It depends on the mass of monitor. I have a ASUS PB278Q on these arms and it can't hold steady when I rise the monitor up. Because the arm only work good for a monitor between 9 and 20 pounds and PB278Q is 19.7 pound. Here's the official page of this product. I hope it's useful to you. http://www.ergotron.com/Products/tabid/65/PRDID/355/language/en-US/default.aspx

The Arm's max tension is reached right around the 30# mark, much over that and they likely wont be able to hold the monitor in the position desired. Beyond that, these particular arm's really don't have that good of a vertical range for a monitor of that size leaving you with little room for adjustment - and you certain wouldn't be able to rotate the monitor without having the arm mounted to the desk.s

I don't think so. Looking at the monitor, I don't see the bolt patterns that would allow you to mount that particular monitor using this type of bracket. Do you have pre-drilled holes in the back of the monitor in an X pattern? When I looked up your model, I saw a smooth housing on the rear of the monitor.

Hi Sandy, yes, that shelf should be able to hold the monitor. However, be careful of the assembly. If not assembled properly, you can have some structural/function issues.

I have a cheap Monoprice "3-way adjustable" arm and it works fine with it. No issue screwing in the VESA mounts. I have three of these arms and they work with my Dell monitors as well.

I don't think it's sturdy enough for a monitor. I keep photo frames on it and they sometimes fall over.
