This configuration combines a steel adapter attachment with the compact 1-inch ball short arm, creating a sturdy mounting solution for walls, machines, and other flat surfaces where space is limited. The short arm keeps the device close to the mounting surface for a neat and controlled setup, while the 1-inch ball system provides flexible positioning for everyday use. It is a practical choice when you want durability, a clean profile, and reliable adjustment without extra reach. Compatible with any DURA Arms head or POS plate.
