RODE Microphone

RODE Microphone 10' Carbon Fiber 5-Section Boom Pole

SKU CH-SB6F-6Z9GX

A 5-section carbon-fibre boom pole that extends from 2.66' to 10' and weighs 18.87oz for lightweight field recording

  • Lightweight at 18.87 oz reduces fatigue on long shoots
  • Extends to 10 ft for flexible microphone placement
  • Collapses to 2.66 ft for easy transport and storage
  • Carbon-fiber construction provides strength without excess weight
  • Twist-lock mechanism secures each of the five sections quickly

Professional Audio Boom Pole

The Rode 10-foot carbon fiber boom pole is built for location sound recordists and broadcast crews who need reliable overhead microphone positioning. Its five-section design extends to three metres, making it suitable for film, television and documentary work where precise audio capture is essential.

Compatibility Check Before Ordering

Verify that your shotgun microphone or windshield system uses a standard 3/8-inch thread, as the pole terminates in this fitting. Ensure the combined weight of your microphone and shock mount remains within comfortable handling limits for extended boom operation.

Carbon Fiber Construction and Daily Use

High-grade carbon fiber tubes keep the weight to 535 grams while providing the rigidity needed for steady off-camera placement. Twist-lock collars on each section allow quick length changes between 810 millimetres and full extension, and the collapsed size fits easily into standard gear bags for transport.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy a microphone or shock mount separately?

The package contains only the carbon-fibre boom pole; a compatible shotgun microphone such as the NTG3 and a shock mount or Blimp windshield must be purchased separately.

There is only one length listed — how do I know it will suit my work?

The single 10-foot model collapses to 2.66 feet and extends through five twist-lock sections, giving continuous adjustment for any reach between those limits.

At 18.87 ounces, will the pole feel heavy on a long shoot?

At 18.87 ounces (535 grams) the carbon-fibre construction keeps the pole light enough for extended hand-held use without significant fatigue.
