Manfrotto Mini Boom Arm, Black

Manfrotto 173B is a compact black aluminium boom arm for positioning a small studio light, flash head or compatible accessory away from the centre line of a lighting stand. Its 109 cm long, 20 mm diameter tube ends in standard 16 mm (5/8") studs with 1/4"-20 and 3/8" threaded tips, so it integrates with common studio mounting hardware. This product is the arm only; the pivoting clamp, support stand and counterweight must be selected separately to suit the load and setup.
