What this video covers
The RAM® X-Grip® tether is an optional accessory that wraps around the corners of a phone or device for extra security. This video explains how the tether is fitted and why it can be useful in rough, exposed or high-vibration mounting environments.
The X-Grip® holder provides the main spring-loaded grip, while the tether adds a secondary layer of retention. It is especially relevant for motorcycles, boats, open cockpit vehicles, off-road setups and other situations where wind, bumps or vibration are part of the environment.

This video provides a short tutorial on how to install a tether on a RAM® X-Grip® phone or tablet mount. Using the tether provides extra security for your device, particularly in rough or outdoor environments.
Installation Steps:
• Insert your device: Place your phone or tablet into the X-Grip® mount as you normally would.
• Connect the tether: Take the tether and press the center circular hole over the rubber ball located on the back of the X-Grip® mount.
• Secure the corners: Gently stretch each of the four corners of the tether and wrap them around the corresponding corners of your device to lock it in place.
The video notes that while the tether is optional, it is highly recommended for use in rugged conditions or open-cockpit applications.
