The Kupo Silver Master 20" C-Stand Kit with Quick Release "Turtle Base" is a steel lighting support with 2 risers and 3 sections which extends to a height of maximum height 172cm. Century Stands or "C-Stands", are the most common type of grip equipment used by the filmmaking industry due to their strength and flexibility. This C-stand is so versatile that it can be used on its own, or in combination with the supplied grip head and grip arm. With studio flash modifiers getting bigger and bigger, the need to properly support them in a range of positions is increasing. 

This kit includes a 20" Grip Arm with Big Handle Grip Head. The 2.5" grip head is mounted on the end of a 40" piece of steel tubing 5/8" (16mm) in diameter. The surface of the tubing is machined to create a rough texture to ensure that the grip head clamps securely. The Kupo grip head has a pair of rotating aluminium discs attached to a 5/8" (16 mm) receiver. The discs have four different sized V-shaped jaws to accept any accessory with a 5/8", 1/2", 3/8" or 1/4" mounting stud or tubing. The V-shaped jaws have teeth that grab whatever is mounted between the plates securely. The Kupo grip head also features an ergonomic T-handle and dedicated roller bearings designed for maximum torque.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

David V. ★★★★★

The two risers and three sections give me plenty of height for boom work, and the whole thing feels rock solid once the legs are locked out. The detachable turtle base is a lifesaver when I need to pack it into a tight kit for location shoots.

Abigail ★★★★★

The quick-release turtle base makes setup and breakdown incredibly fast—I had it locked in seconds. It feels solid enough for my small studio lights, yet the compact folded size is perfect for slipping into a gear bag.

Christopher C. ★★★★★

I needed a compact but stable stand for my small home studio, and the 20-inch base keeps my heavy lights perfectly balanced without taking up too much floor space. The 172cm max height is just right for most of my setups, and the steel construction feels solid enough for daily use.
