PHONE MOUNT ACCESSORIES FOR VEHICLE AND OFF-ROAD USE

Bases, arms, adapters and the parts that complete a modular mount system

Phone mount accessories connect the anchor point to the device holder in a modular RAM system. A mount base secures the assembly to the vehicle. A socket arm sets its angle and reach. The mounting ball provides the adjustable connection. The holder or cradle must then match the device.

This collection covers RAM Mounts components such as drill and suction bases, handlebar U-bolt bases, socket arms, ball adapters, clamps and specialist mounting parts. It includes components for phone, GPS, tablet, GoPro and dash camera installations, subject to device and holder compatibility.

KEY CATEGORIES AND WHAT THEY'RE BUILT FOR

BASES AND MOUNTING BALLS

The mount base determines where and how the system attaches. Collection options include fixed drill bases, suction cup bases, a Handlebar U-Bolt Base, a RAM Diamond Base and bases combined with a mounting ball. Select the attachment method first, then confirm that its ball size matches the rest of the system.

SOCKET ARMS

A socket arm connects the base to the device-side ball and provides adjustment. Shorter arms usually minimise movement. Longer arms provide more reach but may allow more movement under vibration. Both ends of the arm must match the mounting ball size used by the base and holder.

CLAMPS AND NO-DRILL OPTIONS

The Small Tough-Claw provides a clamp-on mount base for a compatible rail or bar. The No-Drill Vehicle Mount uses a compatible seat rail mounting point, while the Seat Tough-Wedge positions equipment from a seat. Check the vehicle, seat and intended device before choosing either option.

ADAPTERS AND CABIN ACCESSORIES

The Custom GoPro Hero Adapter connects compatible GoPro hardware to a RAM arrangement. The threaded ball post provides another connection option for compatible equipment. The collection also includes the Level Cup Drink Holder with Koozie for a suitable RAM system.

WHY THE RAM SYSTEM WORKS

RAM Mounts parts use a modular ball-and-socket layout. This lets the base, arm and holder be selected for the installation instead of treating the mount as one fixed assembly. Components can also be reconfigured when a device or mounting location changes, provided the sizes and connection patterns remain compatible.

That compatibility check matters. A RAM-branded part is not automatically interchangeable with every other RAM part. Confirm the mounting ball size, socket arm size, holder connection, device load and available clearance before ordering.

CHOOSE BY MOUNT LOCATION

For a fixed dash or panel installation, a drill-style mount base provides a defined mounting point. Confirm what sits behind the panel before drilling. Keep the mount, device and cable clear of controls, visibility-critical areas and airbag deployment zones.

For glass or a suitable smooth panel, a suction cup base allows the mount to be repositioned. Heat, direct UV, surface condition and installation quality can affect suction performance. A fixed base may be more appropriate for a permanent touring installation.

For motorcycles, ATVs, handlebars and compatible tubing, compare the Handlebar U-Bolt Base and Small Tough-Claw. Measure the mounting point and check the listed product dimensions. Do not assume that every rail, bar or handlebar has the same diameter or clearance.

For a no-drill use case, review the No-Drill Vehicle Mount and Seat Tough-Wedge. Vehicle and seat compatibility still need to be checked. Consider passenger movement, seat adjustment, cable routing and device visibility before deciding on the final position.

PAIRING WITH DEVICES

These phone mount accessories provide system components rather than every device cradle. Use the related collections to find the holder or complete kit that suits the device:

BRAND WE STOCK AND WHY

All products in this collection are from RAM Mounts. The range is built around modular bases, mounting balls, socket arms and device-side connections. That gives buyers a structured way to build for a particular vehicle and location, but each component must still be checked against the adjoining parts.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN CHOOSING MOUNT ACCESSORIES

Start with the device and intended mounting location. Choose the appropriate mount base, then match the mounting ball and socket arm sizes. Select an arm length that provides enough reach without adding unnecessary leverage. Confirm the holder connection and check that the complete assembly clears the windscreen, controls, passengers, seat movement and airbag deployment areas.

Installation complexity depends on the vehicle, location and selected components. Ultimate Offroad can help specify and fit phone mount accessories at its Ferntree Gully and Pakenham workshops. Bring the vehicle and device details so the team can assess the mount base, socket arm, mounting ball, cable route and installation position.

Submit a service enquiry with your vehicle details, or email sales@ultimateoffroad.com.au, and our friendly staff will confirm fitment, quote the work and arrange a booking at Ferntree Gully or Pakenham.

Frequently asked questions

What parts do I need for a complete RAM mount?

A RAM arrangement generally needs a mount base, a compatible mounting ball connection, a socket arm and a holder or cradle for the device. Some products combine more than one of these functions. Check every interface before ordering because the base, arm and holder must use compatible sizes and connection patterns.

Choose by mounting location and attachment method. Drill bases suit a fixed panel installation, suction bases suit compatible glass or smooth surfaces, and U-bolt or Tough-Claw options attach to suitable tubing. The No-Drill Vehicle Mount and Seat Tough-Wedge cover particular seat-based installations. Always check dimensions, clearance and vehicle compatibility.

Use the shortest socket arm that still places the device where it can be viewed and operated appropriately. Shorter arms usually minimise movement, while longer arms provide additional reach but may introduce more movement under vibration. Check clearance through the arm's full adjustment range and confirm that both sockets match the selected mounting balls.

A suction cup base can suit glass or another compatible smooth surface, but its holding performance depends on the surface, installation and operating conditions. Heat and direct UV can reduce suction performance. Inspect it regularly and consider a fixed drill-style mount base when specifying a permanent touring installation.

Potentially. This collection includes a Handlebar U-Bolt Base and a Small Tough-Claw for compatible rails, bars or handlebars. Measure the intended mounting point, check the listed product dimensions and allow clearance for controls and steering movement. The mounting ball, socket arm and device holder must also be compatible with one another.

The Custom GoPro Hero Adapter provides a connection for compatible GoPro hardware. Tablet mounting requires a compatible holder, mounting ball, socket arm and base selected for the complete installation. Review the available mobile mounting solutions and confirm compatibility rather than selecting only by device type.

Yes. Ultimate Offroad has fitting workshops at Ferntree Gully and Pakenham. Before booking, provide the vehicle, device, preferred mount location and details of any existing RAM parts. The workshop can assess the proposed mount base, socket arm and mounting ball combination and discuss installation requirements without giving an unsupported fixed fitting time.

Warranty coverage can depend on the product, manufacturer terms and the nature of the installation. Review the warranty information supplied for the selected item and ask the workshop about fitting coverage before proceeding. Damage caused by an incompatible component, unsuitable mounting point or incorrect installation may be treated differently, so confirm the complete setup first.

Some configurations can support more than one connection, but suitability depends on the selected components, device load, leverage and mounting point. A shared mount base may also allow more movement than separate bases. Ask the workshop to assess the complete arrangement rather than assuming that an additional adapter will make every dual-device configuration suitable.
