Kupo 13' Metal Chain with Chain Weight, Gray/Black

SKU CH-CTJ3-6WD8X

Stainless-steel 13' chain with weight keeps background paper taut and stable for studio or location shoots

  • Stainless steel construction resists wear through heavy studio use
  • 13 ft length covers wide backdrop spans without joining links
  • Included chain weight keeps paper taut and prevents sagging
  • 55 oz weight allows quick repositioning between sets
  • Gray/black finish blends with studio environments and reduces glare

Stainless-Steel Chain for Background Drives

This 13' stainless-steel chain replaces the standard plastic chain on a background paper drive set. The metal construction resists stretching and wear during repeated rolls. A dedicated chain weight is included to keep the chain taut and the background hanging straight. The set weighs 22.55 oz and comes in gray and black finishes.

Studios Needing a Stronger Chain

Photographers and videographers who find plastic chains snap or sag under heavy paper rolls will benefit from the added tensile strength. The weight helps maintain consistent tension across the full 13' span. Users who do not own a compatible background paper drive set cannot install this chain, and those seeking a lighter plastic alternative should look elsewhere.

13-Foot Reach With Weighted Tension

The 13-foot length covers standard backdrop widths and allows full extension of the drive mechanism. The stainless steel handles the load of heavy seamless paper without permanent deformation. The included weight prevents slack that causes uneven rolls. Very wide or exceptionally heavy custom backdrops may exceed the practical capacity of this single-chain design.

Questions about this item

Do I need to own a background paper drive set for this chain to work?

Yes, the 13' stainless-steel chain and its weight are designed specifically for background paper drive sets and replace the standard plastic chain on that system.

Will the 13' metal chain and weight fit the drive set I already use?

The chain is built to integrate with existing background paper drive sets, providing a sturdier stainless-steel alternative to the original plastic chain.

How can I confirm the chain is set up correctly after installation?

The included weight should keep the 13' chain taut and prevent unwanted movement so the background paper stays precisely positioned during use.
