Aluminium grip head with half coupler, silver finish, 48-50 mm tube fit

Kupo

Kupo Grip Head Half Coupler 20 kg 44 lbs 48-50 mm

SKU CH-EF80-QJ0AV

A sturdy aluminium grip head with a half coupler clamps 48–50 mm tubes and holds lights or flags up to 20 kg (44 lbs)

  • Supports heavy rigs up to 20 kg load
  • Fits 48 to 50 mm tubes securely
  • Aluminium build resists daily studio wear
  • Half-coupler clamps gear without slippage
  • Smooth adjustment for fast light positioning

Professional Grip Head for C-Stand Mounting

The Kupo Grip Head with Half Coupler is engineered for secure mounting on a C-Stand. It functions as a versatile gobo head designed to hold lights, flags, and other accessories in professional film or photography setups. Its robust aluminum construction ensures durability across demanding studio and on-location environments.

Passive Operation with High Load Capacity

This grip head operates without power draw, fans, or noise, relying on a mechanical clamping mechanism for secure holding. It supports a working load of 44 lbs (20 kg), providing substantial weight capacity for heavy lighting fixtures and modifiers. The aluminum body dissipates heat naturally during extended use under hot lights.

Upgrade from Light-Duty Clamps for Heavier Rigs

This unit replaces basic clamps or lower-capacity grip heads when a working load of 44 lbs is required for larger fixtures. The jump is worth it for setups using tube diameters between 48 mm and 50 mm that demand precise, slip-free positioning. It is not suited for rigs requiring mounting on tubes outside the 48-50 mm range or for loads exceeding the rated capacity.

Highlights

  • Supports heavy rigs up to 20 kg load
  • Fits 48 to 50 mm tubes securely
  • Aluminium build resists daily studio wear
  • Half-coupler clamps gear without slippage
  • Smooth adjustment for fast light positioning

Questions about this item

How do I attach the half coupler to a 48-50 mm C-stand arm without it slipping?

Slide the half coupler over the tube until the internal jaws sit flush, then tighten the T-handle until the aluminium body no longer rotates; the 48-50 mm range is the only size that lets the jaws close fully.

Which parts will wear first and need replacement after heavy studio use?

The brass jaw inserts and the T-handle threads take the most clamping force; expect to swap them once the grip no longer holds 20 kg without creep.

At what point does the grip head start to droop during a long shoot with a 20 kg load?

The aluminium body itself will not bend, but the half-coupler joint can settle a few millimetres after several hours at the full 20 kg rating, so re-check alignment periodically.
