The Tilta Pro Articulating Arm with Dual NATO Attachments is the strongest articulating arm in the Tilta range — it carries 5 kg and weighs 289.5 grams. Both ends are NATO rail clamps, so a monitor, wireless transmitter or viewfinder goes onto the cage without any screwing. A single screw locks every axis.

An articulating arm is the part that attaches everything to the rig that has to sit somewhere other than the camera: monitor, transmitter, viewfinder, light. This arm has two ball joints with 360° rotation and 90° tilt, so accessories can be placed in practically any position — and one screw in the middle locks them there.
Both ends of the arm are NATO rail clamps. Accessories drop in from above and lock with a lever — no tools, no hunting for the right screwdriver. Tilta cages carry NATO rails almost everywhere, so the arm slides along the side of the cage to wherever it is out of the way.
The ball joints carry a fine spiral knurl all around. It increases friction as you tighten, so the joint does not slip even with a loaded monitor, yet it never binds — the arm adjusts smoothly and then locks hard.
Each joint rotates a full 360° and tilts 90°. Together that means the monitor can sit above the camera, beside it or below it, and turn towards the operator or towards the director without moving the arm to another point on the cage.
The arm is aluminum alloy with a steel core, measures 240 × 72 × 25 mm and weighs 289.5 grams. It carries up to 5 kg, so a larger director monitor with a battery is no problem — while still not loading the rig enough to upset the balance on a gimbal.
Both axes and the middle joint tighten with a single rosette screw. Changing position is one movement: loosen, move, tighten. On a fast shoot that is the difference between "I will move the monitor" and "I will move the monitor between two takes".
