RAM-B-189-C-UN9U – RAM® Dual Suction Cup Mount with Long Arm and Universal X-Grip® Holder for 9-11" Tablets
The RAM-B-189-C-UN9U pairs RAM's spring-loaded X-Grip® cradle for 9-11" tablets with a dual Twist-Lock™ suction cup base and a long double socket arm, for an extra-strong, no-drill hold on glass and other smooth surfaces.
Key Features
- Spring-loaded X-Grip® cradle with rubber-tipped arms grips the tablet without covering the screen
- Dual Twist-Lock™ suction cup base gives an extra-strong hold on glass and non-porous plastic
- Long double socket arm for extended reach
- Rear grip knobs for quick tablet release
- Powder-coated steel, marine-grade aluminium and high-strength composite construction
- Lifetime warranty on the mount hardware, with the suction cups excluded as a wear item
Works With
Most 9-11" tablets with or without a sleeve or case, including full-sized iPads, Galaxy Tab and Surface Pro devices. See the RAM-HOL-UN9U listing for a fuller compatible device list. Both cups sit on a single fixed plate, so this kit suits flat or gently curved glass; for a strongly or compound curved screen see the pivot version, the RAM-B-189-PIV1-UN9U.

Care & Warranty
- Smooth, non-porous surfaces only — anything rough or textured lets air past the seal and the cups will not hold.
- Clean the surface thoroughly before you apply the cups.
- If the vehicle is left sitting in extreme heat or cold, release the cups and stow the mount rather than leaving it loaded.
- RAM® classes suction cups as a general wear item, so the cups are excluded from warranty cover. The base, arm and cradle hardware are covered as normal.

FAQs
Is this a complete mount? Yes. The dual suction base, round base, long arm and X-Grip cradle are all included — there's nothing else to buy to get your tablet onto the glass.
Will it hold on a curved windscreen? Both cups sit on a fixed plate, so this kit is at its best on flat or gently curved glass. On a strongly or compound curved screen the pivot version, the RAM-B-189-PIV1-UN9U, is the better choice — each of its cups articulates independently and can be repositioned to suit convex or concave surfaces.
Will my tablet fit with a case on? Measure the width of your tablet with the case, sleeve or skin fitted. The cradle opens from 158.75mm to 205.7mm wide and takes devices up to 22.2mm thick.
Are the suction cups covered by the warranty? No. RAM® treat suction cups as a general wear item, so they sit outside the lifetime warranty. The rest of the mount hardware is covered as normal.
What surfaces will the cups stick to? Glass and other smooth, non-porous surfaces. Textured dashboards, matte plastic and anything with a grain won't hold. Clean both the cup face and the surface before mounting — a RAM adhesive disk is the usual workaround where there's no suitable glass.
Is the long arm the right choice? The 152mm arm gives extra reach for pushing a 9-11" tablet clear of instruments or controls. If you want the tablet held closer to the glass, a shorter-arm suction kit suits better.
