  • 17mm ball adapter w/1/4” screw: The elusive missing link!
This item has been a game changer by making it a lot easier to tailor car and bedroom cell phone holders to my needs. Took awhile to find these bc I didn’t know what they were called (Are they called 17mm Ball adapters? LOL) but I’m sooooo glad they (this!) exist! What do they do? The two pieces - a ball-prongs and nut - convert a 17mm ball into a 1/4” screw. Mainly bc I use a pop-socket at center/back of my cell phone case, the choices of cell phone holder arm-supports (aka “arm-support”) became limited. The magnetic plate/magnetic arm combo type didn’t work well bc the plate could only fit in the lower section of my cell phone case and bc the center of gravity was so low, my phone would fall to the floor. So, I decided to retrofit my own design using available parts :P I began with a 17mm ball connected to an arm with a cell phone holder-clamp (aka “clamp”) except that the clamps either weren’t easy to use (I couldn’t easily remove my phone) or it just wasn’t strong enough to hold onto my iphone7 plus. After using the aforementioned arm-supports/clamps for some time, I longed to find a better cell phone clamp (which I did find which worked well); however, dreams are dreams and working without this adapter all that time meant that I had to adjust the entire arm-support with every adjustment. Ultimately, the perfect item would allow my ball mounts to connect to better higher quality clamps. of finding an item such as this (plus an additional ball connector) to connect the various arm-supports with the cell phone holder-clamps so that I would have greater flexibility in adjusting the ball joint connected to the clamp rather than to have to adjust the entire arm-support. (I hope this makes sense bc I have no idea of the correct words to describe these items.) This item comes in a pack of one. I ordered two, one for my night stand phone arm-support and one for the suction arm-support hanging from the windshield of my car. This intermediary device allows me (in most cases), the freedom to adjust the cell phone clamp (the part holding my phone) rather than having to adjust the entire arm-support (the arm connecting the clamp to the windshield/headboard). Connections (example): 1- Car windshield 2- Suction 3- Cell phone arm-support with plastic ball joint end 4- This adapter with 1/4” screw adapter 5- Hot shoe mount with 1/4” screw adapter (aka hot shoe mount 360 degrees swivel mini ball head 1/4 tripod screw adapter for camperas, etc) 6- Cell phone clamp 7- Cell phone Build quality is really good and connections work mostly well. Perhaps bc it is made of plastic, the prongs that surround the 17mm metal ball don’t hold onto the ball as tightly as I’d like even though I’ve hand-tightened the locking nut down as hard as possible without stripping the plastic threads, it can still rotate if pushed hard enough to slip. So if anything, making the prongs a little thicker with a thicker locking nut might help reduce that slight slip is my humble suggestion. If your cell phone employs a pop-socket like mine does, this special adapter might be able to help you devise your own cell phone holder too, just like I did! ... show more

  • Very solid and exactly what I needed
I did not buy this for the suction capability so I did not care that it was not great, but the connectors were very well built and hold very well. No issues with this at all.

  • Used this to repair Garmin GPS mount.
The special mount for our Garmin NUVI 765T broke where the ball and socket connect. I used this item to repair my mount. Had to do some cutting and gluing (used J-B Weld of course!). Worked great!

  • Add a fender washer!
This is a pretty nifty adapter at a good price. Keep this in mind: If it doesn't thread all the way into your camera mount you should add a thin fender washer to take up the space. Some action cameras are pretty light BUT if you're adding the waterproof housing that's a lot of added weight to the threads. That extra weight causes extra leverage and you don't want the threads breaking out of the plastic. Adding a thin washer will keep the threads from rocking back and forth. ... show more
