Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is this just two of the regular Manfrotto Super Clamps (i.e. can I use the clamps separately)?

A: Yes Tony, you can separate the clamps as they are just bolted together.

Q: 2. Can you attach this directly to a tripod head?

A: if you purchase the Impact Short Double Female Stud for Super Clamps with 1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 Threads, B&H # IMSRP103, you should be able to connect the Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud to the 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 male thread on the top of your tripod head.

Q: 3. can this be used to hold a 7 exterbal monitor and attached to a tripod using the super clamp?

A: NO! It can't really hold anything heavier than a GoPro Camera.

Q: 4. Could these be used to mount lights like an Arri 650 to a truss?

A: The Arri 650 only weighs a little over 7.2 lbs so it shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure (of course) to safety cable it.

Q: 5. What is the size of the base of this head?

A: Manfrotto states the base diameter of the Manfrotto 056 3-D Junior Pan/Tilt Head is 60mm in diameter.

Q: 6. Can anyone post a picture of the Super Clamp in use? I have a camera that I would like to hang high . Would this work?

A: Yes, you can easily attach a camera to this directly or attach a tripod head to the clamp (better option).

Q: 7. If this clamp's stud was oriented horizontally, parallel to a table top, could the 1/4-20 threaded end support 5-10 lbs. without it snapping off? If not, is there a stud that is made of steel that would be compatible?

A: The 1/4" thread would not be stable for an item that weighs 5-10 lbs. If you prefer to use a quick release plate, the Manfrotto 323 RC2 System Quick Release Adapter with 200PL-14 Plate, BH # MA323 screwed into the Manfrotto 037 Reversible Short Stud, with 3/8" & 1/4"-20 Threads (Brass), BH # MA037 would be better. The Short Stud should have its 3/8" thread facing towards the bottom of the quick release.

Q: 8. Will this adapter hold the Leica geovid 15x56 R rangefinding binos?

A: If there is an area of less than two inches of diameter (probably toward the back of the tube or on the prism) the clamp will hold it. As an alternative, the Berlebach adapter tray; BH# BEBN2AOC is worth a look too.

Q: 9. What is the difference between What is the difference between this clamp and a regular 035 that makes it worth $14.38 more? The specs are identical except for the virtual having a 3/8-16 thread instead of 1/4-20, when the photo shows a 1/4 inch thread.

A: This product features compatibility with Manfrotto's Virtual Reality Extension Boom products, a 3/8" thread, and will clamp onto slightly wider items (up to 2.2" wide vs. 2.1" for the 035).

Q: 10. Hi, do the letters RL mean that the clamp has a ratchet handle?

A: Manfrotto has 4 versions of the Super Clamp with the Ratchet handle. The only differences are if the stud is included or not, & what particular stud. This 035RL Super Clamp includes a Standard Stud.
