The black Heavy-Duty 13' Adjustable Background Crossbar from Impact is a 3-section telescoping crossbar that adjusts from 58 to 156". It securely holds a 13' roll of seamless paper or smaller cored roll, or any 12' muslin background (adjustable pole maximum width for fabric is 156"). It fits on top of two stands with 5/8" studs. Two thumb screws secure the crossbar onto the 5/8" studs.

Expands from 58 to 156"    Sturdy and Thick Aluminum Tubing    5/8" Receivers    Thumbscrews Included

Anodized aluminum construction

The crossbar adjusts from 58 to 156". The telescoping sections let you adjust the length of your crossbar to any paper or fabric background within those lengths. You can adjust to the precise length to fit irregular background sizes, so your background doesn't have side-to-side play.

The three non-locking telescoping sections won't jam or stick so you can easily adjust the length of the crossbar to different sized widths.

A 9' roll of seamless paper is a heavy weight for the crossbar, and if the crossbar isn't strong enough, the crossbar, and the roll, can sag and cause your paper background to crinkle. The heavy-duty tubing prevents the paper roll's core from sagging, so your paper background will stay flat and pristine.

The included locking T-screws on both ends of the crossbar ensure that your background is securely anchored to your light stands.
