  • Secure, stable fit via thumb tightening screw across wide equipment range

Versatile Cold Shoe Slider

The RapidMount Cold Shoe Slider RM717 mounts speedlights and flash triggers along an extension bar rather than only at its end. An adjustable fit and thumb tightening screw secure virtually any speedlight model. A flat bottom accepts any 1/4"-20 male thread for additional mounting options. Durable aluminum construction with a non-reflective black finish resists unwanted reflections.

Included Rock Solid Adapter

The bundled Rock Solid Hot Shoe 1/4"-20 Adapter converts a hot or cold shoe into a 1/4"-20 male post. Dual knurled locking thumb nuts provide a secure fit on cameras, video rigs, flash brackets or extension bars. This adapter extends compatibility to female 1/4"-20 camera, video or audio accessories. It adds mounting flexibility without extra tools.

1/4"-20 Thread Compatibility

The slider’s flat bottom design connects directly to any 1/4"-20 male thread, determining whether it integrates with your existing support gear. If your rig lacks this thread standard, the slider cannot attach without a separate adapter. The included Rock Solid adapter bridges hot shoe and 1/4"-20 connections for broader setups. Builders needing a different thread size must source another solution.

Questions about this item

Does the thumb tightening screw on the RapidMount Cold Shoe Slider RM717 need periodic tightening?

The thumb tightening screw is designed for a secure fit; check it before each session to ensure the speedlight remains stable on the slider.

What stops the slider from moving along the extension bar during a long shoot?

The thumb tightening screw locks the slider in your chosen position on the bar, preventing drift while the flash fires.

Does the aluminum slider or the included Rock Solid Hot Shoe Adapter get hot when a speedlight runs all day?

The non-reflective black aluminum finish stays cool to the touch; the adapter simply passes the 1/4"-20 thread without adding heat.
