Manfrotto Sliding Support Arm Only

The Manfrotto 231ARM is a sliding support arm (column only) with a quick-release 16 mm (5/8″) female receiver that mounts onto 35 mm studio columns (e.g., 231B/CS stands), allowing fast, tool-free attachment of lights or accessories via the included Spigot 013, with smooth height adjustment along the entire column.

The Manfrotto 231ARM is the dedicated sliding arm component designed for Manfrotto’s 231-series column stands (231B, 231CS, etc.). Made from lightweight yet sturdy black aluminum, it features a spring-loaded quick-release 16 mm (5/8″) female Baby receiver that locks and unlocks instantly with a single lever—no tools required. The arm slides freely up and down the 35 mm column and locks securely at any height via the column’s own handle. It comes supplied with the popular Spigot 013 (reversible 16 mm stud with both 1/4″ and 3/8″ male threads), giving immediate compatibility with virtually any light, camera, or grip accessory. Ideal for adding a second or third light to a single column without extra stands.
