Houdini

Just like magic, the Houdini ™ simplifies your choice of keyboard arms, because it works just about anywhere and does just about anything.
Short Return?
Corner Work Surface?
No Problem!
The Houdini pulls out far enough to work in a corner, but still retracts fully on a short, 17¾” track. Plus, it adjusts quickly and easily to follow various postures for low-risk keyboard positions. It does just about everything except check your spelling!
- Patented design works on both corner work surfaces and short returns by working like an extended mechanism but stowing like a short arm (CornerShaper™ is needed for 90º corners)
- Position indicators for both height and tilt are practical and attractive
- Soft-touch wheel allows convenient, stable, one-hand tilt adjustment
- Provides a total travel range of 8″ (5″ below work surface; 3″ above)
- Offers maximum seated flexibility, with a full 20º negative tilt and 10º positive tilt
- “Lift and Release” height adjustment is effortless and secure
- 360º rear swivel provides additional keyboard tray positioning
- Slim profile maximizes knee clearance when in use or retracted
- Exceeds the ANSI/BIFMA x 5.5 – 1998 industry performance standard
