Manfrotto 5/8" Survey Tripod Adapter

The Manfrotto 324 5/8" Survey Adapter is a 700 g aluminum two-piece converter with 3/8"-16 female base bushing and 124 mm removable top plate with 5/8"-11 male thread—transforming any Manfrotto tripod into a survey-grade mount for theodolites, total stations, or laser levels.

The Manfrotto 324 Survey Adapter upgrades any 3/8"-16 tripod head receptacle with a robust aluminum bushing that locks securely via knurled collar. The 124 mm diameter top plate features a 5/8"-11 male thread for permanent instrument attachment, while the two-piece design allows quick swaps between photo and survey gear. CNC-machined for zero play and anodized for corrosion resistance, it’s the essential retrofit for construction, engineering, or land surveying crews needing rock-solid compatibility with Leica, Trimble, or Topcon systems—lightweight yet durable for field or studio use.
