Heavy Duty Positioning Arms
Pole Base, Pole, Pole-to-Pin Adapter, Two
Rigid Connectors, and Pivoting Mounting Plate
Heavy duty construction adds strength for higher load capacities than other positioning arms. Choose a complete arm or select a base, connectors, and plate, bracket, or tray to build a complete arm. The load capacity of an assembled arm is determined by the component with the lowest capacity.
Complete arms mount to a wall with their base. Secure the object you want to position to the attaching end.

Rigid connectors move horizontally and have a friction adjustment to control drift. To add vertical movement, combine with a counterbalancing connector. Connect multiple rigid connectors up to a maximum projection of 48". A connecting pin is required to connect a rigid connector to a mounting plate, flat-panel monitor mounting plate, straight mounting bracket, tee mounting bracket, and keyboard tray.
Counterbalancing connectors move up and down and are counterbalanced to support the full weight of mounted items as well as absorb torque. If used with a wall-mount pin base, you must also use a rigid connector.
To see the product in motion, click on a part number.
Connecting pins can be used to attach accessories or to extend the projection of positioning arms. Choose a 3 7/8" long connecting pin to connect a rigid connector to an accessory, such as a keyboard tray. Choose a 5" long pin to connect multiple rigid connectors together.

Articulating Desktop Cranes
With two joints that each rotate 360°, these cranes make it easy to position a load exactly where you need it. Unlike standard desktop cranes that swing loads in a circle at a fixed distance, these cranes let you place it almost anywhere within their arm’s reach. Mount them to workbenches and utility carts to save room in tight workspaces. They’re often used to raise heavy tools and parts for repair or assembly. Since they’re compact, they’re easy to move from one base to another. Additional bases are sold separately. Turn the hand wheel clockwise to raise a load and counterclockwise to lower it. An internal brake controls the descent, keeping it slow and steady, and holds the load in place if you let go of the hand wheel.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
