Product Information
Full details
The Quad Lock 360 Suction Base is designed for users needing a reliable, repositionable mounting solution for smartphones, action cameras, and accessories in automotive, marine, or aviation environments. Its primary benefit is the high-strength, lever-actuated suction that secures firmly to non-porous surfaces like windshields, though users must note that it requires an additional Quad Lock 360 arm for most configurations to provide adequate clearance for the locking lever.

FAQs
Can I use this on a textured dashboard?
No, the suction base requires a smooth, non-porous surface to maintain a vacuum seal. It will not work on textured or porous plastics.
Do I always need an arm with this mount?
Most configurations require an arm to provide clearance for the locking lever, except when using the Quad Lock 360 Action Camera Head.
Will heat damage the suction cup?
The device is rated to operate between -10°C and 50°C (14°F to 122°F). Prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding this range may affect suction reliability.
How do I clean the suction cup?
Simply wipe it with a damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive soaps.
Can this be used on slightly curved glass?
Yes, as long as the curvature radius is greater than 1 meter.
Troubleshooting
The suction base keeps falling off the surface.
Clean both the suction cup and the mounting surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove oil, dust, or residue that prevents a proper seal.
The locking lever is hard to engage.
Ensure you are using a compatible Quad Lock 360 arm to provide necessary clearance; check that there are no obstructions beneath the lever.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum security, always clean the target surface with an isopropyl alcohol-based cleaner and ensure it is completely dry before mounting. Simply press the suction cup firmly against the surface and flip the lever to engage the vacuum.
Compatibility Note: This base is a component of the Quad Lock 360 range. Always verify that your chosen arm and head are compatible with the 360-degree rotation system. If the suction power decreases over time, remove the base and gently wipe the suction cup surface with a damp, lint-free cloth to remove dust or debris. Do not store the mount in extreme temperatures outside the recommended range for prolonged periods, as this can degrade the rubberized suction material.
