Century Stands, or simply known as C-Stands, have been the most common type of grip equipment used by the filmmaking industry for decades due to their strength and flexibility. Used on their own, or in combination with a grip head and grip arm, the C-Stand is used for mounting lighting equipment and a variety of light shaping tools and accessories.
The Kupo Master C-Stand with Sliding Leg features two legs that are spring loaded to open in fixed positions while the third leg is height adjustable by loosening a locking knob and sliding it up and down the main riser section. This enables the user to raise one leg higher than the others to level out the stand on an incline or uneven terrain. This feature provides optimum support of lights, reflectors, and gobos.
All C-Stands feature a unique base specially designed with three varied leg heights. This enables the user to stack or nest the stand bases so that the risers are just inches apart from one another for use in close proximity mounting of lights and other grip equipment along with easy storage. The 20in Master C-Stand has a chrome-plated finish and a zinc alloy casting on its base that's five times stronger than aluminum to sustain the weight of heavy sandbags and other equipment. The aluminum cast locking collars are outfitted with a stainless steel heli-coil that protects the risers from damage.
The Kupo Baby 3" Wall Plate allows you to mount a 3" (7.62cm) long Baby 5/8" (16mm) stud anywhere on a wall, other flat surface or just about anywhere. This plate gives you the option of mounting it by using screws or nails through any of the 8 anchor points pre-drilled into the plate. Attached to a wood or metal base they make great free-standing floor mounts also known as "pigeon" plates or can be positioned almost anywhere when clamped between the discs of a grip head. It comes in a chrome plated steel finish.
