Can this be adapted to be clamped underneath a glass computer desk? The glass is 1/4" thick

I doubt it. It is designed to be screwed into the desk to which it will be attached.

Highly unlikely. At a minimum it would have to be structural glass at least 3/4" thick and you would need some type of padding for the undermount bracket. I doubt the company would suggest it. But try company support line, they are helpful.

I use mine on the computer desk made of tempered glass. That being said I had a piece of plywood cut and placed where the clamp would go and it works great. I know that's not exactly what you asked but it's how I've circumvented that problem. By the way I have a heavy 27 inch touch screen monitor and this device holds it like a champ with no drilling at all.

The lip on the back of my desk is 2 1/8", and it was a close call. 2" would probably work but the mount will not slide completely flush. And you may scrape your knuckles tightening it down. The mount is adjustable for a very wide range of thicknesses, you'll want to use the shortest of the three choices. My desk is 1 1/2" thick - at 3/4" I'd want to be sure the material it's made out of can take the weight. Unless your desk has a flimsy top, it should work fine.

There is some padding provided for the clamping base, so likely it would work with a glass desk.

Yea, that should work, but you want to make sure the thing will clamp to the edge of your desk. There needs to be a lip or an edge that it can grab on to. I was honestly a little disappointed about how small it was. But it is still sweet.

This probably will not work as you need more than 10" under the desk to install the hardware.

Sorry, but I don't think this will work for you. The top part of the clamp comes over the top of my desk a good inch before the bottom part can secure it tightly. It is a great lamp but it is very top heavy...

I'm not sure, because I don't know how thick your monitor is. I measured the "gutter" in the stand, and it looks like it can accommodate just under 1/2", or 7/16th. You can always send it back if it doesn't work -- it's definitely sturdy enough. Good luck!

I dont have experience with that, but if I were you, I would add some softer coushion (e.g. your old t-shirts/old mouse pads) between the clamp and the desk. Since glass is a quite stiff yet brittle material, it should support the mount+ monitors if you eliminate potential local stresses on the desk surface.

I wouldn't the glass is only 1/4" thick, I have a lamp which is about 20 lbs on it with some pictures and it's fine.

I assume your question is specifically related to a cable guided parallel rule, in which case this could potentially be installed and used with this table if you found a durable way to attach the cable anchors to the glass surface, e.g.: with a glass compatible adhesive or bracketing to the metal sub-frame under the perimeter of the glass. The glass top is truly seamless, with smooth polished edges relatively flush with the edges of the sub-frame, and the glass is completely unobstructed except for a pencil ledge on the front edge which can be raised to extend above the edge of the glass or kept lowered to remain out of the way. This movable pencil ledge could easily be omitted from the table assembly if it somehow caused interference with your cable anchor mounts.

Yes. if the table top is very thick and sturdy. You need a about a one to two inch thick edge/surface to clamp it onto. The unit is about 10 pounds of metal without a laptop on it. The clamp is metal and will scratch your glass if you clamp and screw it onto the table. So I woundnt clamp it directly onto the glass. Wrap the glass edge with a thick handcloth or cardboard or something.

I don't believe it would work with a "very thin" desk top as you need enough thickness to be able to anchor the carrying rails.

I don't think it will work in this application.The bracket is a two piece model that clamps around a round object, holding it together with two screws.The problem is that the Culp half of bracket is molded to the cup and there is that there is not enough room for tools to turn in screw to attach it to the side of the desk.

I'm thinking it will as long as the Plexiglas is not too thin - such as 1/8" or less. Reason is the clamp has some weight to it so the material that will be clamped needs to be able to support the weight of the clamp without flexing.

So long as your desk has a 2 inch lip on the edge for the clamp to screw up into, yes it could be set up. As for whether or not it would damage your desk, I suppose it would depend on the strength and thickness of your glass. The clamp can clamp on as thin a surface as you need but the desk mount with the monitor does put a lot of pressure on the clamp because it's holding up weight so far away. The clamp is a 2 square inch area that holds all the weight reaching out at an upward angle. I don't know how much weight your monitor + desk mount would be or what kind of glass you have, so I can't make a suggestion as to whether it would fracture the glass.
