- • Mounting Security: Dual fail-safe locking with a spring-locked finger wrench and additional hasp
- • Best for: Photographers and videographers using Manfrotto-style quick-release clamps
- • Not ideal for: Heavy professional camera rigs exceeding the 3kg load limit
Alloy quick-release plate with a 3kg load capacity and a dual-safety locking system. Compatible with Manfrotto 200PL-14 style clamps and includes a 1/4'' to 3/8'' adapter.
Secure attachment - with dual fail-safe locking
Spring-loaded finger wrench locks the plate inside the clamp groove, and a hasp adds a secondary lock for extra security. Disassembly requires pulling the safety valve and then the release button to eject the plate.
Reliable locking prevents accidental drops during repositioning and active shooting, keeping gear secure up to the rated load. Safer handling reduces the risk of costly camera damage.
Wide mounting compatibility - with 1/4'' to 3/8'' screw adapter
A 3/8'' screw hole on the plate works with full-size tripod heads, while the included 1/4'' to 3/8'' threaded adapter fits smaller mounts. Threaded interface accepts standard monopod and tripod fittings.
Works with a broad range of tripods and monopods including Manfrotto 200PL-14 style clamps, so swapping between supports is straightforward. One plate covers multiple heads, reducing kit bulk.
Durable, protective build - with alloy construction and rubber grip
High-quality alloy construction is finished with a waterproof, rust-resistant coating and non-slip rubber on the plate surface to increase friction. All-metal build gives structural strength for repeated use.
Long-lasting materials stand up to outdoor use and help protect camera bases from scratches. The rubber pad improves stability while shooting on uneven or vibrating supports.
