20" Ajustable Jaws Flex Clamp Mount Clip Gooseneck Extension for Gopro Cameras Studio Stand Lighting Accessories

Although this was a photographic equipment mounting device, I purchased this item to use as a document holder (probably only one page at a time). I have a roll-top desk, that when rolled open, has about a 5 inch flange running the whole 4 feet of the desk’s width It is a simple device; an approximately 22 inch very stiff and very study gooseneck rod and two same-sized sturdy spring clips. They fit over either end of the gooseneck rod and are secured to the flexible rod by thumb screws. In most gooseneck applications the ends are permanently attached to the gooseneck ends, requiring the gooseneck itself to be twisted into the proper configuration for the ends to be useful. By using thumbscrew attachments, you can bend the rod to the configuration/position desired and place the spring clips in their desired positions, attaching them with the thumbscrews without extra stress on the gooseneck. I was curious how much paper a clip would hold when used as a document holder. I grabbed a stack of loose paper (38 sheets thick). The clip held the stack easily and the gooseneck did not drift downward due to the weight. I am very impressed with the design and capacity of this purchase

I've been looking for something to help hold my embroidery hoop while I worked. Just something to help steady me really. This is perfect! The neck is VERY strong. I have a little trouble bending it but u usually just use the edge of my desk to help. The clamps themselves aren't quite as good. The metal of them is a bit thin and will bend under heavy weight but they do a good job of acrually clamping onto things. I liked it so much I bought a second one to hold a camera so I can start maming embroidery videos.

Flex arm is thick and strong and can handle some weight. 4 stars instead of 5 because the rubber covers tend to slip off the clamps when moving the arm around, making the whole unit slide around and droop, requiring me to re-install the rubber covers

This product is advertised as "Heavy duty clamp at one end for attachment to tube or thick object." However, the gooseneck is extremely stiff while the clamp is actually made of very thin weak metal, so the clamp bends out of shape very easily while you are trying to position the gooseneck where you want it. I bought two of these, and there are a couple of small allen screws that hold the clamp to the gooseneck that were loose on both of them, which made this problem even worse if they weren't tightened first before use - assuming you have a set of allen keys around because one is not provided to do this. Even still the clamp proved to be too weak to support anything weighing more than a couple ounces without the whole thing falling out of place, so ultimately this product is completely useless to me. I will be returning them both and spending a little extra to buy a similar model elsewhere that is actually heavy duty.

It's upside down. Can be used to mount a go pro or el gato light, but only if you're clamping it to a desk or another object. I clamped it to my desk, and attached my el gato proprietary screw mount to the other end and it works perfectly to aim the light from behind my 24 inch monitor to my face for video calls. Anything heavier than the El gato light would likely be too heavy for the gooseneck. The gooseneck isn't super strong, so seems like it might fall over time if moved or repositioned frequently. Not bad for the price.

I attached this to an old wooden stand I had that did not have a way to hold what I needed. I used this contraption to clip to the top, and now use it for holding my embroidery hoops when I stitch in my armchair. The neck is pretty stiff but that means it holds its shape well. The top clip is very strong and the bottom screw tight clip is a able to hold onto flat or round base parts. Highly recommend for stitchers!

The gooseneck is very stiff and difficult to position where you might want it to go. It is all but incapable of making any smaller radius curves. This means that it will only work well for mild curves and therefore is not very useful for positioning objects, except in quite limited circumstances. To illustrate: one of the main marketing images for this clamp system shows it connected to a white desk and extending upwards, nearly straight, to the other clamp. Imagine that you put a playing card in the upper clamp, then tried to position the arm such that the playing card was held near the table top, close to the bottom clamp (which is pinching on to the table). You will not be able to do that with this clamp / gooseneck system -- the neck is far too stiff and inflexible. On top of this, the clamps themselves are made from weak metal. This means that, while they have a strong pinch, they will bend out of place while you are trying to wrestle the stiff gooseneck into the position somewhere close to what you want. This is a thoroughly ineffective product. Look elsewhere.

I bought this with the intent of suspending flowers and such half way into my resin projects, that's not going to happen! This thing is SUPER STRONG! It has an amazing tight strong grip that is very suited to what is is made for (photography light holder) or shop/garage use. Not for delicate items! Great size that allows for versatility in use.

not what I was after. Clamps either were too tight or too loose depending on what i wanted it to hold. The gooseneck was so stiff the clamps would fall off if I tried to bend it a bit more.

Very strong ! Good clamp !

works as described, well built.

I use this to hang my scripts and hang my phone. Good strong contruction.

Need a third hand? Works great.
