Could this monitor arm be mounted to a tempered glass desk?

Hello Valisk,I would say you can mount this to a glass desk, but I would recommend you place a piece of wood between the bottom of the desk and the clamp for stability. Thank you for your question. Taylor W.VIVO

I would NOT. Tempered Glass goes without warning and is quite explosive when it does. You end up with 40 pounds of glass that looks like dog kibble :)All you would have to do is rock it during a heavy gaming session and there would be no crack, snap or other warning. Just a huge pile of broken glass and 3 monitors sitting in your lap.

It can, but you would definitely want to use a small wooden block or something to brace the metal fasteners. You also want to make sure you don't have something under the glass that could block the clamp opening
1062222
Yes, but you'll want to put some cloth or another material between the metal and glass.

I would probably not. All of the weight is supported by about 3 square inches. Maybe if you used a couple of boards around the glass to spread the weight out.

If you mount it to the desk but I would not trust using the base for that. Depending on the size of your monitor it could become too heavy and tip over.

I can't say for sure, but I'd try it. You can always return it, so keep the box in case it doesn't work. I recommend trying to find a clamping point on your desk that will be somewhat close to where your monitor will actually be suspended because the shorter the arm's radius from clamp to monitor, the less leverage forces the clamp will exert on your desk.

If you have at least a 1/2 inch between the desk and the cubicle wall, you will be able to mount it. Now to get the two moniters to aid flush and not have the arms hit the wall u might have to play with it a little. Fortunately the arms are set up for easy use and adjustment.

With the single arm, the weight is the main factor. If the larger monitor is lighter than the one you are currently using and the holes on the monitor match up with the holes on the mounting plate, there should be no issues in using the arm with it.

Yes. There are mounting holes in the back of the monitor that will fit to this mount. Just make sure you use the right screws, or you will destroy the treading on the monitor.

can't say but I have mine mounted on a half inch desk edge without any problem. The top part of the mount covers a fairly large area but the bottom has two significant clamps that you may want to tighten up against something that protects the glass.

If you put blocks of wood between the glass and clamp it might work. But I wouldn't think that this stand should be on a glass desk. I would look for something else.

You sure can, This is a great stand. Don't hesitate. Just make sure your monitor is VESA compatible

Hi Ruthie, yes, you will be able to make the monitor touch your desk if you'd like, if it clears the front, you can get the bottom a little lower. It also tilts back quite a bit, so you can pull it down and then tilt it back, this arm is very nice, I have 3 of them!

Donald, unlike some monitors and LCD TV/screens it is obviously not designed to do that, since it doesn't have the standard mounting holes. This is an excellent touchscreen monitor at a good price and I have been pleased with the performance, but the stand and mounting options are very poor. In addition to no wall mount capabilities, the stand is fixed....you can't tilt it forward or back to change the viewing angle.

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.

The cable mounts would not interfere with moving it, however, moving it can be problematic. The monitor is held in place with a clamp that is constricted via a bolt that is tightened/loosened with a hex key. You'd have to loosen the bolt, move the monitor, tighten the bolt, each time you wanted to move it up or down. You can do it, but I would think something more like a desk mount lcd arm would be better suited to the task that you described.

There is some padding provided for the clamping base, so likely it would work with a glass desk.

You could do that but there is no stand to suppor it, the monitor does not rotate, it has no Vesa mount. Unless you make it lean against a wall it is unstable.

Yes you can..... Actually I have but I mounted the monitor on desk mount so that there is no pressure on the bottom of the monitor. There are small screws that attaches the clear plastic to the monitor.

The unit uses a clamp that connect to the stand via an approximate 1 and 1/4 inch pipe. To mount the monitor arm to a wall would require some form of an adapter made from a pipe like the original design.
