Product Identity

The Profoto Strip Mask 101236 is a dedicated light-shaping accessory built for the 1x4 foot OCF softbox range. It slides onto the front of the softbox to narrow the beam and create a focused, soft-edged strip of light. The mask is made from durable, lightweight fabric that withstands frequent studio and location work. Photographers gain precise control over spill without adding bulk to their kit.

Ideal User

Portrait and product photographers who need a long, narrow highlight to define contours or separate a subject from the background will find this mask indispensable. It suits professionals and serious enthusiasts already invested in the Profoto OCF system who want fast, tool-free setup. Shooters requiring broad, wraparound fill or those using non-OCF softboxes should look elsewhere, as the mask only fits the specified 1x4 foot model.

Capacity & Limits

The mask covers the full 1x4 foot aperture, delivering an even strip that holds its shape across typical working distances in portrait and tabletop sessions. It handles the heat output of Profoto OCF heads without deformation during extended shoots. The fabric construction offers no rigid framing, so very large modifiers or high-wind outdoor conditions may cause flutter that softens the edge definition.

  • Quick attachment to OCF softboxes for efficient workflow

Questions about this item

Which softbox does the Profoto 101236 strip mask fit?

The mask is designed for the Profoto OCF Softbox 1x4 ft. It attaches to the front of that specific softbox to narrow the light spread.

Will the mask work with my older Profoto OCF softboxes?

It only fits the 1x4 ft OCF softbox. Other OCF sizes such as the 2x3 ft or octa models have different front dimensions and are not compatible.

How can I confirm the mask is seated correctly after fitting it?

The mask should sit flush against the softbox front diffuser with the hook-and-loop strips fully engaged. Light should show an even, narrow strip with no edge leakage.
