  • Clamps 13 mm to 35 mm tubes for rock-solid stability

Compact clamp for 13–35 mm tubes

The Manfrotto 386BC NANO Clamp attaches to round or flat poles from 13 mm to 35 mm diameter and holds up to 8.8 lbs of gear. Weighing 110 g, it fits in a pocket and suits photographers or videographers who need a lightweight, portable mounting point for lights, monitors or small accessories on location or in the studio.

Included 3/8" and 1/4" adapter expands mounting

The supplied adapter provides both 3/8" and 1/4" threads, letting you connect a wide range of heads, arms or directly mount devices with either thread size. This removes the need for separate thread converters and lets you switch between photo and video accessories quickly.

Tool-free installation with pull-lock handle

Open the clamp, position it on the tube and pull the aluminium handle to lock; no tools are required. The patented unexposed thread design protects threads from damage, while the high-friction tape improves grip on smooth surfaces. On very thin or tapered poles the clamp may not achieve full contact, so verify the diameter stays within the 13–35 mm range before relying on it.

Questions about this item

Does the patented unexposed thread system on the 386BC NANO Clamp need periodic lubrication or replacement?

The unexposed thread design protects the mechanism from dirt and wear, so no routine lubrication or thread replacement is required.

When the clamp holds a 4 kg load on a 35 mm pole all day, which limit appears first — grip slip or handle fatigue?

The high-friction tape and aluminium handle are rated for the full 4 kg capacity, so neither grip slip nor handle fatigue should occur under continuous rated load.

How much heat does the aluminium body generate when the clamp stays locked under an 8.8 lb payload for extended periods?

The clamp is a passive mechanical device with no moving parts under load, so it produces no measurable heat during all-day use.
