"RAM" Prefix Code

To provide lightweight strength and corrosion resistance, RAM is made of marine grade aluminum with a black powder coated finish, stainless steel hardware and rubber balls. The standard mount bases include a yoke mount, round base, rubber suction cup and U-bolt handlebar for attaching electronic and GPS devices. Other configurations can be considered for laptop systems in vehicles and marine uses. 

Recognized and accepted by the U.S. Patent Office, RAM is the only universal ball-and-socket system that holds tremendous amounts of weight in high vibration applications for military, commercial and private use.

"RAP" Prefix Code

Many of these parts are available in composite, mount part number has the prefix code RAP. The composite components include both single and double socket arm assemblies with the same patented rubber ball and socket technology. The octagon button system works with the Quick Snap Belt Clip Holder, Quick Snap Surface. The new Snap Flex Link System is a male to female snap together configuration that has screws to tension the joint. The RAM Rail Mounts for handle bars and railings with a 1" rubber ball and or diamond base for adaptation to any other diamond base system. Then again, the possible mounting solutions are endless, affordable and backed by the NPI Lifetime Warranty.

RAM Balls are injection molded onto a marine grade aluminum post. The materials used to make the balls and/or posts may be varied to provide characteristics required for most applications.
Ball specifications showing 5 different sizes

RAM® CRADLES AND HOLDERS

The RAM range has custom formed cradles and holders suitable for many electronic, PDA and GPS devices as will become apparent as you tour around our web site. Where applicable, we shall show the cradle with a selection of standard mounts to ease the selection process and choice. However, for the more adventurous user wishing to build a customized mount system, then by selecting mating parts, you can achieve your own solution.

GETTING IT RIGHT

Arm specifications showing 3 different lengths

When ordering a RAM mount system or additional components, it's important that you understand the part number system. To help you understand the part number format used, we are providing the following example. It is four different sizes of a basic RAM mounting system including the corresponding arm, round base with ball.

Note: The C size 1 .5" ball does not have a letter C following the RAM- prefix code, while all other sizes do require a letter. Important: Be careful to make sure you have the letter in the proper location of the part number so you order the correct size system or component. If in any doubt, please contact us.

Vad betyder ett "U" i artikelnumret?
"U" står för "Unpacked", och produkten levereras i plastpåse. Annars levereras artikeln i butiksförpackning, box eller ryttare.
En RAM-B-201 är alltså exakt samma produkt som RAM-B-201U, förpackningen skiljer.

Vilka vikter rekommenderas för de olika kulstorlekarna? (English version below)
A-storlek 0,56" / 14 mm kulfäste för enheter upp till 0,25 kg, och mindre vid tunga applikationer *

B-storlek 1" / 25 mm kulfäste för enheter upp till 1 kg, och 0,5 kg vid tunga applikationer *
Men upp till 5 lbs / 2,2 kg i applikationer med mycket små stötar och vibrationer. Men ännu mindre än 0,5 kg i extrema applikationer **

C-storlek 1,5" / 38 mm kulfäste för enheter upp till 2 kg, och 1,5 kg vid tunga applikationer) *
Men upp till 4,5 kg i applikationer med mycket små stötar och vibrationer. Men ännu mindre än 1,5 kg i extrema applikationer **

D-storlek 2,25" / 57 mm kulfäste för enheter upp till 3 kg, och 2,3 kg vid tunga applikationer *
Men upp till 6,8 kg i applikationer med mycket små stötar och vibrationer. Men ännu mindre än 2,3 kg i extrema applikationer **

E-storlek 3,38" / 86 mm kulfäste för enheter upp till 7 kg, och 4,5 kg vid tunga applikationer *
Men upp till 13,6 kg i applikationer med mycket små stötar och vibrationer. Men ännu mindre än 4,5 kg i extrema applikationer **

*NOTERA! Var medveten om att de maximala vikterna ovan är en guide.
**NOTERA! Var medveten om att de maximala vikterna ovan är en guide. Olika applikationer och monteringsvinklar påverkar dessa gränser! Vi föreslår alltid testning i varje enskild applikation för att verifiera.

Se till exempel nedan: Viktigt: På grund av kulledssystemet och de oändliga variationer som är möjliga att bygga med RAM-monteringssystemet måste professionella lösningar testas i varje applikation för att säkerställa korrekt funktionalitet.

What weights are recommended for the different ball sizes?

A size 0,56" / 14mm ball mount for units up to 0,5lbs/0,25 kg weight and less in heavy duty applications*

B size 1" / 25mm ball mount for units up to 2lbs/1 kg (.9kg) weight and 1 lbs/0,5kg in heavy duty applications*
But up to 5 lbs in applications with light very low shock and vibration. However even less than 1 lbs in extreme applications **

C size 1.5" / 38mm ball mount for units up to 4lbs/2 kg (1.8kg) weight and 3 lbs/1,5kg in heavy duty applications)*
But up to 10 lbs in applications with light very low shock and vibration. However even less than 3 lbs in extreme applications **

D size 2.25" / 57mm ball mount for units up to 6lbs/3 kg (2,7kg) weight and 5 lbs/2,3kg in heavy duty applications*
but up to 15 lbs in applications with light very low shock and vibration. However even less than 5lbs in extreme applications **

E size 3.38" / 86mm ball mount for units up to 15 lbs/7kg (6.8kg) weight and 10 lbs/4,5kg in heavy duty applications *
But up to 30 lbs in applications with light very low shock and vibration. However even less than in extreme applications**

*NOTE! Be aware, the maximum weights above are simply a guide.
**NOTE! Be aware, the maximum weights above are simply a guide. Different applications and mounting angles will affect these limits! We always suggest testing in each individual application to verify. For example, see below:
Examples:

Marine/SportFishing: On a fast moving lighter motor boat it is wise to aim for the lower of the stated weight limits. On a heavy leasure sailing boat or very large motor boat, one can most likely use the higher of the stated weights.
Forklifts/Construction Vehicles/Tractors: In a forklift truck that doesn’t have any suspension and often drive over concrete sills it is wise to aim for the lower of the stated weight limits. In a well chock suspended cabin of a Forest Harvester or in a semi truck one can most likely use something in between the lower and the higher weight.
Bicycle/Powersports: On a MX motorcycle it is wise not to exceed the lower weight limit. On a downhill or BMC bicycle it is wise to also stay around or below the lower weight limit for phones and GPS etc, while when mounting a camera to the bicycle it is recommended to stay well below the lower weight limit for vibration free filming. On a Honda Goldwing or larger motorcycle one can go above the lower weight limit, but not up to the higher stated weight.

Important: Due to the ball and socket construction and endless variations possible to build with the RAM Mounting system, particularly in professional solutions must be tested in each application to ensure proper functionality.

Hur långa är de olika armarna?
Vill du översätta till centimeter är 1" = 2,54cm

Angående lackering
Av produktionstekniska skäl kan det förekomma att vissa delar på vissa produkter inte täcks till 100 % av den svarta lackeringsfärgen. Den underliggande aluminiumytan kan då framträda. Dessa ytor är oftast på ställen där de inte framträdande syns vid produktens normala användningsposition. Det vanligaste stället där detta kan förekomma är på aluminiumaxeln strax under kulan. Det är viktigt att veta att dessa skönhetsfel inte påverkar produktens funktion och är inte att betrakta som ett fel på produkten och därmed inte är någon godtagbar grund för reklamation.
