A professional 5.5' black, steel C-Stand kit with removable turtle base, 40” extension arm, and 2 - 2.5” grip heads.

A true workhorse, the ProMaster 5.5' C-Stand Kit has an amazing load capacity of 22 lbs. This kit includes not only the stand, but also a 20" extension arm and two 2.5" grip heads. The stand's turtle base is detachable and the legs fold together for easy storage. 

This 5.5' stand is shorter and lighter weight than its taller counterparts. This makes it easier to move around and to get lower angles for your lights and modifiers. By setting the extension arm at a downward angle you can achieve even lower height than the stand's minimum working height of 36.5"

Rounded t-handles are easy on your hands and can be found on the stand's risers as well as the grip heads. They create a powerful lock when tightened, to prevent slipping.

Each of the 2.5" grip heads has multiple size ports (5/8", 1/2", 3/8" & 3/16") for holding items like an extension arm, scrim, flag, baby stud, and more. These 2 1/2" heads rotate for best positioning. A special friction disc creates a powerful connection, so each head won't move after you set its position.

This stand is black (to minimize light reflections in the studio) and is constructed of high-strength steel. Both grip heads are made with a strong aluminum alloy. The extension arm is steel.

A 5/8" stud is used at the top of the stand for attaching lights or one of the included grip heads.

* Please note: the 22 lb load capacity is for the stand only, not including the use the extension arm and grip heads. Also note, this stand requires some initial assembly.

Riley C. ★★★★★

First time using a grip head and extension arm combo this solid, and the 40” arm held a softbox perfectly without any droop. The steel build feels heavy-duty enough to trust with pricey gear, though you’ll definitely want a sandbag on the turtle base.

Evelyn W. ★★★★★

The 40" extension arm locks down tight with zero sag, even with my heavy softbox mounted. Setup was straightforward and the whole kit feels like it'll last years on set.

Michael P. ★★★★☆

The turtle base is a nice touch—it folds away neatly, but the whole kit is heavy enough that I still lug it with two hands. The 40” extension arm has held my softbox steady all week, though the grip heads took a minute to get used to. Solid and dependable for the price.
