The Tether Tools Rock Solid Articulating Arm is a fully adjustable arm designed for positioning a tablet, camera, light, flash and many other accessories in the optimal position.
The dual 5/8” studs integrate with numerous standard photo and film clamps, platforms and tools used to mount equipment, including Tether Tools Aero Tables, Connect iPad Bracket, Rock Solid Camera Platform and Local Vu Monitor Mounts.
The Rock Solid Arm is compact in design and simple to maneuver. Measuring 20.8” inches when fully extended, and featuring 3 articulating joints, the arm can easily mount accessories at the desired angle and position When the center knob is loosened all three articulation points loosen for easy maneuverability. When the perfect position is achieved, simply tighten the knob and everything locks securely.
The two 5/8" (16mm) Baby locking hex stud ball joints rotate 360 degrees, plus a cut-out in each sleeve surrounding the ball allows the stud to be bent 90 degrees. One stud accepts a 3/8"-16 thread, while the other accepts a ¼-20 thread. Each stud has six milled flat surfaces, so whatever is mounted on the Rock Solid Arm, it will not rotate. The central elbow rotates 360 degrees for infinite adjustability.
The Rock Solid Articulating Arm’s center lock is metal construction with locking teeth. Many arms rely on friction and over-tightening of the knob to hold equipment in place, which may cause sagging or small movements over time. Unlike traditional designs, the Rock Solid Articulating Arm utilizes a locking system which, once set, prevents any movement or sagging; thus achieving precise results and peace of mind when mounting equipment. Additionally, no replacement friction discs or pads are needed.
