Libec ALX S12 43.5" Slider 33lbs Payload with Case

SKU CH-7BYM-WK7RD

A 43.5-inch camera slider supports 33 lbs payload and includes a carrying case

  • 5" sliding range for extended camera movement
  • 33lbs payload capacity supports heavy cinema rigs
  • 180-degree folding legs store inside case without removal
  • 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 threads mount heads, tripods, accessories
  • Adjustable friction and brake dial in precise slide resistance

Professional Camera Slider & Payload

The Libec ALX S12 provides a 43.5-inch sliding range on a 47-inch aluminum alloy rail. It supports a 33lbs payload when used off-tripod, serving videographers who need controlled linear movement for cinema or broadcast rigs. Eight greased ball bearings sandwich the rail to suppress wobble during operation. A spring-equipped friction knob and brake deliver adjustable drag and lock-off.

Capacity Limits & Tripod Dependency

The 33lbs / 14.97kg rating applies only when the slider is not attached to a tripod; mounting it on legs reduces the safe payload. Users running heavy cinema cameras with matte boxes and motors must verify the combined weight stays below this threshold. The 1104.90mm travel suits medium dolly moves but falls short for long tracking shots. Legs open to 180 degrees for flat packing.

Mounting Interface & Case Constraints

A 75mm / 2.95-inch ball base and flat base adapter connect the slider to tripods, while dual 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 threads on the bottom accept two tripod heads simultaneously. Side rosette adapters allow accessory arms. The included nylon-polyester case stores the assembled unit with legs folded, but its fixed dimensions limit added gear. Hex wrench adjustment of bearing preload is the only field calibration.

Questions about this item

Will the 33lbs payload rating still apply if I keep the slider on my existing 75mm ball-base tripod?

The 33lbs / 14.97kg payload is specified when the slider is not attached to a tripod; mounting it on a 75mm ball base or flat base reduces the supported weight.

How can I confirm the eight ball bearings are correctly tensioned after I assemble the slider?

Adjust the supplied hexagon wrench until the carriage moves smoothly without wobble, then use the spring-equipped friction knob to fine-tune resistance for the camera weight.

Does the nylon carrying case hold the slider with its legs folded at 180 degrees, or must I remove the legs first?

The legs open and close to a full 180 degrees so the 47" / 1193.80mm rail fits inside the case without leg removal; the case uses nylon, polyester, TPE, PE, PP, POM and EPE materials.
