👍 Advantages
Very compact and inexpensive way to convert objects without a thread into mountable items.
Useful for lightweight accessories where you don’t want to use clamps or straps.
Great for DIY mounting on small flat or semi‑flat surfaces.
Works well with Tether Tools / other rigging that accepts 1/4‑20 screws.
👎 Limitations / Things to Be Careful About
Adhesive strength depends heavily on the surface: smooth, clean, dry flat surfaces work best. Rough, curved, oily, or dirty surfaces may cause adhesive failure.
The load limit is quite low (8 oz / ≈ 226 g). If you exceed that, risk of the mount peeling off or shifting.
Adhesive is not usually reusable — once removed, stickiness tends to reduce, or adhesive residue can remain.
Environmental factors (heat, moisture) can degrade performance of adhesive over time.
For heavy accessories or those with overhanging weight or cables, better to use a more robust mounting method.
