The WALI M001XL is a purely mechanical vertical stabilizer featuring a 39-inch (100cm) cold-rolled steel center pole with a 35mm diameter. This structural architecture is designed for high-clearance or stacked monitor configurations, supporting a weight capacity of up to 22 lbs. Unlike gas-spring units, this system utilizes a friction-based collar-and-clamp mechanism for height adjustment along the central axis, providing superior vertical fidelity for standing-desk conversions.
Physical dimensions confirm compatibility with monitors up to 32 inches using VESA 75/100 patterns. Torque at the base is significantly higher than standard mounts due to the extended height; consequently, the C-clamp requires a solid wood or reinforced desk substrate to prevent material failure. The steel-to-steel contact points lack internal damping, meaning environmental vibrations may be transmitted directly to the display.
Operational protocols indicate that height adjustment is a manual, tool-dependent process requiring a hex bolt to be loosened. Cable management is facilitated through external plastic clips, which are subject to mechanical stress from heavy-gauge cabling. The unit offers tool-less tilt and swivel once the initial tension is calibrated with the included hardware.
The WALI GSMP002N provides an articulating gas-spring alternative for users who require dynamic depth adjustment not offered by this rigid pole system. This hardware is part of the monitor arms and stands category of workstation tools.
