RAM-HOL-UN9U – RAM® X-Grip® Universal Cradle for 9"-11" Tablets

The RAM-HOL-UN9U is a RAM® X-Grip® universal tablet cradle that uses a spring-loaded four-arm design with rubber caps to grip tablets between 158.75mm and 205.7mm wide, with or without a case or sleeve. It ships without a ball base, so it needs to be paired with a separate ball base, such as the RAM-B-202U, to mount to an arm.

Key Features

• Spring-loaded ‘X’ design with rubber caps grips the tablet firmly without covering the screen
• Easy-access grip knobs on the rear of the cradle allow quick release of the tablet
• Includes an additional bottom support keeper for extra stability in portrait orientation or high-vibration use
• Expandable arms fit most 9"-11" tablets, with or without a sleeve or case
• Made from high-strength composite and marine-grade stainless steel components
• Backed by a lifetime warranty

Mounting Base

The RAM-HOL-UN9U does not come with a ball base attached. It has a (3) 4-hole AMPS pattern (1.181" x 1.496") with 75 x 75mm VESA compatibility on the rear, so you'll need a separate ball base to mount it to an arm. Compatible bases: RAM-B-202U (B size), RAM-202U (C size), or RAM-D-254U (D size) — choose based on the arm you're pairing it with.

FAQs

Q: Why does a holder for 9"-11" tablets also cover the 11" iPad Pro at the top end?
A: The "11" in iPad Pro 11 refers to the diagonal screen measurement, not the overall device size. The iPad Pro 11's actual footprint (9.74" x 7.02" x 0.23") falls within this cradle's width and thickness range. For any universal holder, it's the overall length x width x depth that determines fit — not the marketing screen size. Factor in your case dimensions if your tablet is in one.

Q: Will this holder still work if the side supports don't fit my tablet?
A: In most cases, yes. The side supports are optional and mainly recommended for extra security in high-vibration environments, or to support the bottom of the tablet in portrait orientation.

Q: The spec sheet lists a maximum length of 260.4mm (10.25"). Can I use a taller tablet?
A: Yes — that maximum only applies if you fit the optional side support arms. Leave one or both off and the cradle will accommodate taller tablets.

Q: What size screws do I need for the holes on the ball plate?
A: The most common sizes are #8, #10, M4, and M5. If you're pairing this cradle with a RAM® ball base, the base will come with the hardware needed to connect them.

Q: My tablet isn't listed in the compatibility section — how do I check it'll fit?
A: Compare your tablet's overall dimensions (with any case) against the width, thickness, and length figures in the Dimensions & Specifications section above.
