There are 2 possible ways to install your monitor arm. With a clamp mount, you attach the base firmly with a clamp. This is possible with desks between 10 and 85mm thick. If you choose feed-through mount, you have to drill a hole in your desk and screw the base into place. This is only suitable for desks with a thickness between 10 and 40mm. Did you choose a method? Check the VESA size of your monitor. This way, you can be sure that it fits on the monitor arm.
