438 Gear-Head Track Adapter | Fishing Accessory, Rod Holder, Boating & Kayak Accessory

Good.

I prefer the Ram Mount as far as versatility because the ball offers a high degree of articulation. But depending what you attaching you really can beat this. It slides right on my track right out of the package with no additional hardware required. I like that you can twist it tight onto the track with one hand and remove items with a simple turn. Only thing I don't like is that it is a little wide and high so depending on the track location and the contours of your kayak deck it can be a tight squeeze. I have an Old Town Vapor and the cockpit edge does not provide for a flat open mounting surface so you have to be careful how you mount your aftermarket rails and take into account the width of the mounts that you want to put on. In my case this worked out perfect on my left side where I have a short 8 inch track. I added an extension arm and rod holder. I had enough space to put a ram mount self leveling cup holder using the aformentioned Ram Mount. Combination looks and works great. You definitely have to plan depending on the contours and profile of your kayak deck. if you have a narrow space then you may want to consider the Ram Mount Diamond base which had a different profile and is more forgiving when deck space is at a premium.

This adapter fits a track perfectly and any Scotty accessory you need to attach. Works well and is easy to change out if needed.

Easy to install, holds pretty well. I wouldn't trust it too much to handle strikes from bigger fish (pike, small sharks, etc). Worked great as a mount for a rod holder that wasn't going to see immediate action. Highly recommended for accessories with limited strain (cup holder, cameras, etc). Very easy to change out which accessories (even on the water) and the mount is easily moved from location to location around the boat without needing tools.

I have been using these for years. Makes mounting things on a fishing boat or kayak easy.

Just what I needed from my kayak fits perfectly

I use this on an Ascend 12T kayak. I use the factory installed rails and this mount works well. It folds my Scotty rod folder. I also have another one that I have a Garmin fish finder mounted on. Everything is held very right, some time too tight as I have a hard time removing the mount. I would recommend this mount if you wish to mount something on your kayak.

Listen, these make it easier for yakers to attach to their tracks. These also work with Brocraft rod holders, so that's another positive. The negative to me is the bottom piece is what you screw to get into track. If you tighten too much (which happens as the day goes on), It is a nightmare to get off and to get whatever you are using it it out. I've had a head fail already from it tightening too much. I'd advise Scotty to make the top piece the same with the bottom equal in size. Would be easier and make the product better.

I love this, it's good quality and works great

Excelente

Easy to set up and use. Will buy again for another kayak.
