I have a couple of VESA video monitor arms at work that are missing the bracket bit that attaches to the back of the monitor and then clips onto the support arm.

 

I have searched and can not for the life of my find where you might source replacement brackets - surely they must be something you can buy?

 

 

 

Anyone got any ideas?

The VESA standard is only the size and dimensions of the holes, 

 

The bit you want will be specific to the manufacturer of that arm mount,  Some of the VESA brackets  come off like the one you want, but others are permanently attached to the Arm...

Welcome to the exclusive club.

The one you join where people 'borrow' monitors. Or shift themselves around without hands on, or change monitors/arms and don't take brackets off.

The club also entitles you to a small room filled with orphan monitor stands, and desk posts and mounts with no brackets

Club may also include visits that come ask for 'spare' brackets out of the blue and raise your concerns.

See it all the time. Usually after a full refresh and then needing to deal with additions or moves after the fact. Too many budget arms not using the same profile between models/suppliers.
