Review on πŸ”© Tough-Ball Mount RAP-B-379U-252025: Enhanced with 1/4"-20 x .25" Threaded Stud and B Size 1" Ball by RAM Mounts by Ryan Marx

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wobbles more than other RAM balls Responds to shaking

Looks good and says it has a stronger stainless steel mounting pin. Obviously it has a built in hex nut for tightening which is never a problem if you have RAM levers as you can always tighten one of those on the ball and use it as a lever to tighten the mounting bolt. The problem with this, I've found, is that it moves more like a bouncing rubber ball than my other RAM balls, which are balls on a metal rod. I've used them to mount a camera on my bike to keep other riders honest and this one shakes and provides blurry video. This is normal when stationary, but unacceptable when driving the road through bumps and other bumps.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Minor
