Radpole® All-In-One Mounting System
Looking for a ruggedized mount for over-the-shoulder shots from your GoPro Hero HD, Kodak PlaySport or other waterproof sportscam?
Want a gear mount with infinite possibilities for accessorization? Lights, camera and action.
The Radpole is our ultimate all-in-one mounting system, hosting your camera equipment, electronic devices, navigation gear — even your fishing rod, on its base.
The Radpole is hardened to the core, intended for use in freshwater, saltwater, rough water, sunlight, salt spray and blasts of sand. From head to tail, its structural components are constructed entirely of lightweight aluminum — no plastic, PVC or plated steel. We even add our own stainless steel and brass hardware to kick things up a notch.
Got RAM gear already on deck? You can buy just a Radpole arm for your RAM "C" ball and add your own RAM "B" ball cradles, accessories and DIY gear. We sell our accessories à la carte as well.
Our Radpole "Expedition Kit" is a complete package including the Radpole arm, base, stainless mounting hardware, camera mount, video mount and a waterproof Tektite navigation light providing 360° visibility, meeting U.S. Coast Guard, international and U.S. inland waterways regulations for "vessels under oar" including kayaks and canoes.
Everything you need in one box!
For storage and portage, the Radpole arm can be quickly swiveled at the base so the pole can be swung down to be stowed flush with your deck or quickly decoupled and removed with no loose parts. These ball-and-socket couplers allow the Radpole to be tightened just enough to maintain stability, while capable of flexing to sustain the impact of a tree branch, paddle whack or rapid attempt to reposition the pole.
With 100% of its structural components made of aluminum, the Radpole is built for the rough stuff.
Unlike any other multipurpose mount available, the Radpole is constructed of marine-grade, lightweight aluminum. Standing nearly 3 feet above your kayak or boat deck, the total weight of the entire 31" Radpole kit, fully loaded, is 26 ounces (750 g). |

The Radpole's base is a RAM Mounts 1.5-inch, solid aluminum ball. It is 100% compatible with state-of-the-art RAM Mounts fishing rod holders, rocket launcher rod tubes and any "C" ball accessories manufactured by RAM — the world's leading manufacturer of ruggedized mounting solutions.
The Radpole base is bolted to your deck with our stainless steel hardware (included). We even add the properly sized drill bit for a quick install. Or, if you want to use the Radpole on an existing Hobie, Scotty, Attwood or Fish-On mount we'll substitute a 1.5-inch "B" ball RAM wedge adaptor for insertion into your existing mount at no extra charge.
As mentioned, if you already have installed a RAM Mounts 1.5-inch "C" ball on your deck, we offer the Radpole arm standalone, ready for you to add your own accessories. Or, you can purchase a Radpole SOT Kit with all of the accessories in our Expedition Kit but without a base and deck mounting hardware.
The coupler atop the Radpole accepts any RAM Mounts 1" ball so you can accessorize your Radpole with extras sold separately, extras included with the SOT Kit, plus any RAM "B" ball cradles and accessories available from a RAM Mounts vendor.
The Radpole is rugged, intended for use in all-terrain, freshwater and saltwater environments. Its components can stand up to the rigors of pitching and rolling, ultraviolet rays in sunlight, the brush of branches, the occasional paddle smack and salty sandblasts of seawater. For paddlers, anglers, boaters and sailors — even ATV enthusiasts, no competitive mount approaches the Radpole in price, quality and flexibility.
The Radpole® Flex is our flexible version of the Radpole. Radpole Flex models are constructed exclusively of power-coated spring steel, high-strength composite, brass and stainless steel. This flexible alternative is perfect if you envision making lots of quick adjustments to the position of your camera or video equipment.
