LightPro Super Clamp Black 13-55mm with handle
LightPro Super Clamp Black 13-55mm with Handle - The Ultimate Multi-Purpose Grip Foundation
The LightPro Super Clamp is a high-density, versatile cast-alloy grip clamp designed to securely mount heavy-duty fixtures, cameras, and essential production accessories to almost any tubular or flat surface on a professional set.
Built for the Demands of Modern Production
On a fast-paced professional set, grip equipment must deliver uncompromising reliability and versatility without adding unnecessary bulk to your kit. The LightPro Super Clamp addresses the constant challenge of mounting heavy fixtures in tight or unconventional spaces where traditional light stands simply cannot fit. With an exceptional 14kg (30.8 lbs) payload capacity, this clamp is engineered to safely lock down heavy C-stand boom arms, high-output COB LEDs, and fully rigged camera setups directly to speed rails, trusses, or practical environmental elements. It eliminates the need for bulky floor supports, allowing cinematographers and gaffers to maximize floor space and position lights precisely where they are needed for optimal lighting ratios and spill control.
Constructed from a highly durable, lightweight cast alloy, the clamp offers incredible torsional stability, ensuring that attached gear remains rigidly locked even when subjected to dynamic movement or vibrations on set. The jaws are designed to accommodate a vast clamping range of 13mm to 55mm (0.5" to 2.1"), gripping seamlessly onto round tubes, pipes, and scaffolding. Additionally, it ships with a dedicated wedge insert, transforming the clamp instantly for use on flat edges like doors, tables, and plate glass without compromising the structural integrity of the grip point.
At the core of its utility is the industry-standard 5/8-inch (16mm) hexagonal receiver. This anti-rotation socket provides a rock-solid mounting point that completely prevents heavy light modifiers from sagging or spinning out of alignment under their own weight. Paired with the included 1/4"-20 hex stud, this clamp delivers out-of-the-box readiness for mounting field monitors, wireless video transmitters, or secondary B-roll cameras. The ergonomic black locking handle provides the necessary leverage to secure the heavy-duty payload effortlessly, ensuring your expensive production gear is safe from slippage during long, demanding shooting schedules.

Production FAQ
How does the clamp handle torque when mounting heavy, off-axis light modifiers?
The LightPro Super Clamp utilizes a 5/8-inch hexagonal receiver that locks compatible hex studs in place, completely eliminating rotation and twist when flying heavy softboxes or boom arms.
Can this clamp safely grip onto flat surfaces like tables or practical doors on location?
Yes, the clamp includes a removable wedge insert that instantly adapts the curved interior jaws for a secure, flush grip on flat surfaces like timber boards, glass plates, or desks.
What size speed rail or scaffolding can the jaws accommodate?
The jaws expand to a maximum width of 55mm (2.1 inches), making them fully compatible with standard 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" speed rail, as well as regular C-stand risers and truss tubes.
Is the 14kg payload rating sufficient for rigging a built cinema camera?
At 14kg, this clamp can comfortably support a fully rigged camera package, but it is critical to ensure that the structural pipe or flat element you are clamping onto can also bear that combined weight without failing.
