Adapts 162mm Lenses to 114mm Matte Boxes
This adapter ring connects lenses with a 162mm front diameter to clamp-on matte boxes that accept a 114mm interface. It is designed for cinematographers and camera operators who need to use larger cinema lenses with standard matte box systems. The accessory expands lens compatibility without requiring a dedicated matte box for each lens size.
Replaces Individual Matte Boxes per Lens
Instead of purchasing separate matte boxes for every lens diameter, this step-down ring allows a single 114mm clamp-on unit to serve multiple 162mm lenses. The upgrade is worthwhile when a production kit includes several large-diameter optics but budget or weight constraints favour a single matte box solution. It removes the need to swap entire matte box units between lenses.
Limited to Fixed 162-to-114 Conversion
The ring only bridges the specific 162mm to 114mm diameter gap; it cannot adapt other lens sizes or interface types. Its clamp-on design relies on the matte box providing a secure 114mm mounting point, so compatibility depends entirely on the matte box specifications. Users requiring variable diameter support or screw-in filter threads must seek alternative accessories.

Questions about this item
What lens diameter does the 162-114mm step-down ring adapt to fit a 114mm clamp-on matte box?
The ring adapts lenses with a 162mm front diameter so they can be used with a 114mm clamp-on matte box.
How is the adapter ring secured to the lens, and what common mistake should be avoided?
The ring clamps directly onto the 162mm lens barrel; the mistake is tightening the clamp before the ring sits flush, which can leave a gap and cause slippage.
What part of the adapter ring is most likely to need replacement after heavy professional use?
The clamp mechanism and its locking lever see the most wear from repeated mounting and should be inspected regularly for smooth operation.
