Display
Use the weight without its original stand, VESA hole pattern and rear depth. Curved and unusually deep displays can change the effective load.
Published specifications, not guesswork
Monitor-arm compatibility checker
Compare your display and desktop measurements with manufacturer-published limits. Passing these checks is not an installation approval: desktop construction, edge strength, obstructions and the exact product revision still need inspection.

What to measure before buying
Desktop
Measure thickness at the exact clamp position and inspect the underside. A hollow-core top or reinforced edge needs manufacturer-specific confirmation.
Movement
Allow for wall clearance, the arm’s rear sweep, cable movement and any sit–stand travel. Published extension is not the same as required desk depth.
