Using a monitor arm with your pen display comes down to whether your pen display is VESA mountable.
If your pen display is VESA mountable, you can use a VESA compatible monitor arm.
If your pen display is not VESA mountable, there are some options
Smaller pen displays are about the size of a laptop, so you can try an arm designed to hold a laptop.
Here is an example:
Here's some creative DIY solutions:
Wacom has designed an arm for their Cintiq line called the Wacom Flex arm that is specifically designed for their product. Not that this arm only works with specific Cintiq models.

If you already have a monitor arm you can use the Wacom VESA Mount for Cintiq 24 & 32 with it to mount those specific models.
Huion has a monitor arm which appears to be a rebranded version of a generic monitor arm.
This brand comes up a lot when people mention what arms they use, but I don't have any personal experience with them.
North Bayou F100A
North Bayou F80
I use this brand a lot.
My notes on Ergotron monitor arms
I just ordered this in August 2024, so I haven't had time to use it yet. By September, I'll have some initial notes on it.
All monitor arms have some amount of wobble. Some have more and some have less. But NONE of them feel "rock solid"
One thing that will help reduce the wobble is if the bottom of the pen display rests on something like your desk.
If you want to have ZERO wobble you need to use a stand with your pen display.
