High-Performance Flexible Gooseneck Mounting for Tablets & Phones
Tired of cheap holders that sag and wobble? Our industrial-grade gooseneck arms use interlocking steel segments with high-carbon spring steel cores — delivering no-sag technology and industrial-grade rigidity that holds any position, every time.
Ideal for office desks, live streaming setups, and everyday workstations. Chrome-plated finish with smooth bending action. Compatible with smartphones and tablets up to 10".

OD: 10–12mm | Length: 300–500mm | Load: up to 500g
Engineered for large tablets like iPad Pro 12.9" and industrial ruggedized devices. Thicker diameter with reinforced core wire provides maximum rigidity and zero sag under heavy loads.
The secret is in the core. Our proprietary combination of high-carbon spring steel, interlocking steel disc segments, and copper friction elements creates a gooseneck arm that holds any position indefinitely.
Inner Core Material Science
Chrome-Plated Outer Shell
Decorative and protective outer tube. Available in chrome, black electrophoresis, or powder-coated finishes. Provides corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal.
Interlocking Steel Disc Segments
Precision-stamped steel discs that nest together to form the flexible spine. Each disc's concave-convex interface creates controlled friction that resists unwanted movement.
High-Carbon Spring Steel Core Wire
The central tension element. Made from C65–C75 high-carbon spring steel wire, heat-treated for optimal elasticity. This is what provides the 'memory' that prevents sagging.
Copper Friction Elements
Thin copper washers between steel segments increase inter-disc friction without adding excessive stiffness. The copper's self-lubricating property ensures smooth bending action over 20,000+ cycles.
Outer Diameter (OD) Load-Bearing Analysis
Choosing the right OD is critical. A thicker tube supports heavier devices but reduces flexibility. Use this table to match your device weight to the optimal gooseneck diameter.

Technical FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Expert answers to common technical and purchasing questions about our gooseneck mounting systems.
How do I choose the right gooseneck diameter for a 12.9" iPad?
For a 12.9" iPad Pro (approximately 680g), we recommend our 19mm OD gooseneck arm with reinforced spring steel core. This provides sufficient rigidity to hold the device at any angle without sagging, even at arm lengths up to 350mm. If you need a longer reach (400mm+), step up to the 22mm OD with copper-reinforced core. For lighter cases without a protective shell, the 16mm OD may suffice for shorter arm lengths under 300mm.
Are these flexible arms resistant to vibration in industrial settings?
Yes. Our Heavy-Duty Series (16mm+ OD) is tested to MIL-STD-810G vibration standards, which simulates the conditions found on forklifts, CNC machines, and production line equipment. The interlocking steel disc segments create friction-locked joints that resist positional drift under continuous vibration. For extreme vibration environments, we also offer a bolt-through mounting base with rubber isolation gaskets that further dampens transmitted vibration.
Can the mounting base be customized to fit specific machine frames?
Absolutely. Our engineering team designs custom mounting interfaces for specific equipment. Common customizations include: non-standard bolt patterns for machinery, rail-mount adapters for T-slot aluminum extrusions, magnetic bases for steel surfaces, and clamp jaws sized for specific tube or pipe diameters. We provide CAD drawings for approval before tooling, with prototypes available in 5–7 business days and production tooling in 2–3 weeks.
