We've integrated a camera mount as reliable when mounted on your kayak as it is on your car windshield.

The RAM Locking Suction Camera Mount, manufactured by RAM Mounts and enhanced with the addition of Kayalu accessories, provides a unique opportunity for you to secure your camera or speedlight using a locking vacuum cup design similar to the mechanical suction cups used by professional glass installers.

The mount's ball-and-socket head is supported by a spring-loaded composite arm. The arm's handle can be loosened for positioning your camera, and tightened with a single hand. This head assembly is tough as nails, easily capable of stabilizing the camera's position.

Atop the arm is an anodized aluminum ball with a 1/4"-20 screw, compatible with any camera or device ordinarily accepting a standard tripod screw. We add an EPDM rubber bushing on the stud to ensure a snug fit with your camera while protecting it from unnecessary scratches.

If you are interested in mounting a larger video camera or speedlight, you may consider our KLR-5450B Video Camera Mount. That mount sports a wide base adapter instead of the aluminum ball that is included with this mount. Alternatively, we provide you with the option of ordering this camera mount and substituting RAM's composite wide base at no additional charge (see Options below). You can purchase the ball, the wide base, or both if you intend to swap parts for various devices.

The locking suction cup at the base of this unit provides an exceptionally strong grip by comparison with competitive suction-based mounts. This mount, cleanly affixed to any non-porous surface (glass, steel, fiberglass, enamel, plastic, etc.), can secure devices weighing up to 2 lbs. (.9 kg).

The mount can be affixed to a glass window, fiberglass kayak, car fender or a boat windshield by power-locking its vacuum grip to the surface through the action of a mechanical lever arm. And when you want to remove the mount, you simply twist the lock counter-clockwise and pull up a small rubber tab.

To enhance the functionality of this industrial quality camera mount, we include a marine-grade, nylon-coated bungee tether and a plated steel breech clip, which allow you to secure the mount in the event that the mount is bumped or the suction becomes disengaged.
