Six orange saddle sandbags in Cordura nylon, empty with double zippers and dual handles

Flashpoint Brand

Flashpoint Empty Saddle Sandbag 15 lb Orange 6-Pack

SKU CH-VS3T-Y2JKH

Six empty saddle sandbags made from water-resistant Cordura nylon, each holding up to 15 lb of filler to stabilise stands and booms

  • Holds 15 lb of sand or gravel for solid light-stand stability
  • Water-resistant Cordura nylon protects filler from moisture on location
  • Double-zipper closure keeps weight securely inside during moves
  • Dual handles allow quick repositioning of boom arms or backgrounds
  • Saddle shape wraps stand legs for steady support on uneven ground

Secure Studio Ballast

The Flashpoint Empty Saddle Sandbag provides adjustable weight for light stands, boom arms and backgrounds. Each bag accepts up to 15 lb of sand, soil, rocks or similar filler. The six-pack supplies enough ballast for multi-light kits or larger grip packages. Photographers and videographers gain reliable stability on location or in the studio.

Check Stand Compatibility

Verify that your light stands, boom arms or background supports accept saddle-style weights draped over the centre column or cross-brace. Confirm the combined load of the bag and filler stays within each support’s rated capacity. Ensure you have a suitable filler material such as sand or gravel available before the shoot.

Integrates With Grip Gear

The Cordura nylon shell resists water and abrasion during outdoor or indoor use. Double-zipper closures keep filler contained during transport and repositioning. Dual handles allow quick placement and removal without tools. Empty bags store flat, freeing space in gear cases until ballast is needed on set.

Questions about this item

What is included in the 6-pack and what filler material must be purchased separately?

The pack contains six empty saddle-style sandbags made from water-resistant Cordura nylon with double-zipper closures and dual handles. Sand, soil, rocks or other weighting material must be supplied by the user.

Should I choose a different capacity or colour for heavier light stands?

This model is offered in a 15 lb capacity and orange colour only; select it when that weight rating matches the load you need to stabilise.

How does the 15 lb capacity perform when the bag is mounted on a boom arm?

When filled to its 15 lb rating the sandbag provides a stable counterweight for boom arms, light stands and backgrounds, with the saddle design keeping the load centred over the support.
