Monitor Arms & Accessories — Expert Answer
What is the maximum desk thickness for a monitor arm clamp mount?
Most standard monitor arm clamps support desk thickness from 1 to 4 inches (25–100mm). Extra-thick desk clamps accommodate 3 to 6 inches. Standard commercial desks are 1–1.75 inches thick; butcher block or solid wood desks can run 2–3 inches; steel-frame industrial workbenches may be 3–5 inches. Before ordering, measure your desk edge thickness at the clamping location. Also check whether there's a metal apron or reinforcement that limits clamp jaw access. If your desk thickness is at the maximum of a clamp's range, the clamping force per contact area decreases — consider grommet mounting for very thick or irregular desk edges.
