    How to choose the right HAT Collective arm

    Start with the weight of your screen without its stand, from the maker's specification sheet. Everyday screens of 1 to 9 kg suit the E2: the single takes up to 32 inches, the dual two screens up to 27 inches. Heavier or larger screens need the E5: the Single Dynamic takes 2.3 to 20.4 kg and up to 49 inches, the Dual Dynamic up to 11.3 kg per screen.

    Then decide how the screens should move. Dynamic arms float on springs and move through the day; the crossbar moves two screens together; the static poles fix screens at a height, for stacked and four-screen walls. Every arm here mounts from above with a clamp or grommet, both included, on desks up to 38 mm thick. Our desk compatibility checklist covers the rest.

    Monitor arms and sit-stand desks

    A monitor arm pairs well with a sit-stand desk: you can reset the screen height each time you change from sitting to standing. The E5 Dual Crossbar's handle moves both screens in one go.
