Profoto 1.3x2' RFi Rectangle Softbox Rods
This four-pack supplies aluminium replacement rods built for the Profoto 1.3x2' RFi Rectangle Softbox. They are intended for photographers who need to restore or maintain the frame of that specific softbox so light-shaping performance stays consistent. The rods slot directly into the existing design without modification. Professionals and serious hobbyists who rely on Profoto RFi modifiers will find them a direct fit.
Passive aluminium frame component
The rods are passive structural parts; they generate no heat, produce no noise and draw no power during normal studio use. Their aluminium construction resists bending under the tension of the softbox fabric, keeping the diffuser flat for even light spread. No electrical connection or cooling is involved, so they add nothing to the studio’s thermal or acoustic load.
Replaces worn or damaged RFi softbox rods
These rods replace the original frame pieces when they become bent, cracked or lost, restoring the softbox to its intended shape. The colour-coded tips speed up identification and insertion, cutting reassembly time. The upgrade is worthwhile whenever the current rods no longer hold the fabric taut, because a distorted frame degrades light quality. They do not fit other softbox sizes or brands.

Questions about this item
How do I install the replacement rods in the 1.3x2' RFi Rectangle Softbox, and what step is often missed?
Match each rod's color-coded tip to the corresponding corner pocket, then push firmly until the tip clicks into the metal ferrule; the step people skip is verifying the click, which prevents the rod from bowing under tension.
What maintenance will these aluminum rods need over time?
Wipe the rods with a dry cloth after each shoot to remove dust and residue; inspect the color-coded tips for deformation before reassembly, and replace any rod that shows a permanent bend or cracked tip.
What is the first limit that appears when the softbox is used continuously with these rods?
The aluminum rods absorb heat from the modeling lamp, so the first limit under sustained use is thermal expansion causing slight bowing, which softens the rectangle's corners and reduces edge-to-edge light evenness.
