The Manfrotto 192 is a compact, solid-aluminum 5/8″ (16 mm) Baby male to 3/8″ (9.5 mm) male adapter that instantly converts any standard 5/8″ Baby receiver (light stand, C-stand knuckle, Super Clamp, etc.) to accept accessories with a 3/8″ female thread. The 3/8″ stud features a flat notch so it locks securely with thumb screws, making it the essential “Baby-to-3/8” reducer used daily in studios worldwide.
The Manfrotto 192 is a precision-machined aluminum double-ended stud that solves one of the most common rigging problems: connecting 3/8″-threaded accessories (gobo heads, Magic Arms, small ball heads, monitors, etc.) to the ubiquitous 5/8″ Baby receivers found on virtually all professional light stands and grip gear. One end is a full-size 5/8″ (16 mm) Baby stud; the other is a 3/8″ (9.5 mm) stud with a machined flat that prevents rotation when tightened with a thumb screw. At just 45 g and under 5 cm long, it’s the inexpensive, bomb-proof adapter that lives permanently in every grip bag.
