3/8 to 1/4 Cold Shoe Adapter

This stainless-steel adapter converts a 3/8 inch thread into a 1/4 inch hole while adding a single-layer cold shoe mount. It is built for photographers and videographers who need to attach lights, microphones or monitors to a camera cage or rig. The anodised aluminium nut and stainless shoe keep the assembly light at 15 g.

Simple Thread-On Installation

Screw the 3/8 inch male end into the cage or camera body, then tighten the CNC-machined aluminium nut by hand or with a small tool to lock the cold shoe in place. The anodised sandblasted finish resists slipping during tightening. Over-torquing the nut can strip the finer 1/4 inch internal threads, so apply only moderate force.

Single-Layer Cold Shoe Limits

The single-layer shoe holds one accessory with a standard foot; it lacks the locking pin or friction plate found on double-layer designs. Heavy on-camera lights or large monitors may shift under vibration unless secured with an additional safety tether. The 3/8 to 1/4 conversion reduces the thread engagement area, so the joint is best suited for lightweight rigs rather than heavy cinema builds.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 12mm by 25mm cold shoe adapter is seated correctly on my cage?

The stainless steel single-layer cold shoe slides into the cage's shoe mount until the anodised aluminium nut with its 3/8-to-1/4 thread engages fully; a firm, wobble-free fit shows it is working.

What comes in the box and what must I supply myself?

The package contains the 41817 cold shoe seat with its integrated nut; you need to provide any 1/4-inch accessory — such as a monitor arm or microphone — that will thread into the adapter.

Which version of the 41817 should I choose for a standard DSLR cage?

The single-layer black model with 15g weight and 12x25mm footprint is the only version listed, so it suits typical DSLR cages that accept a universal cold shoe and need a 3/8-to-1/4 conversion.
