Built for overhead lighting rigs

The Flashpoint Boom Arm is a black chrome-plated steel support that extends from 46 to 86 inches and holds 5.1 to 8 lbs of gear. Its ratcheting pivot clamp and rubber-coated grip let photographers and videographers lock lights at precise angles in studio or on location. A standard 5/8" receiver fits common lighting fixtures.

Suited for single-light overhead work.

This arm serves shooters who need one dependable boom for a key light, hair light or small modifier. It will not suit crews running multiple heavy heads from a single stand, nor sets that demand a longer reach than 86 inches. Builders who need integrated sandbag storage or motorised height control should look elsewhere.

Counterweight hook and rubber grip change daily

The built-in counterweight hook lets you balance the load with a standard bag, keeping the arm steady at full extension. The rubber-coated section gives a secure, comfortable hold when sliding the boom to a new height, so adjustments stay smooth even with gloves or cold hands.

Questions about this item

What type of light stand or mounting base do I need to attach this 86-inch boom arm?

The boom arm has a standard 5/8-inch receiver, so it fits any light stand or base with a matching 5/8-inch stud.

Will this 86-inch arm still hold a 7-pound LED panel when fully extended?

Yes, the weight capacity is 5.1 to 8 lbs even at full extension, so a 7-pound fixture is within the supported range.

How can I verify the ratcheting pivot clamp is locked securely after positioning the arm?

Tighten the ratcheting pivot clamp handle until it resists further turning, then gently tug the arm — it should not shift or rotate.
