Secure and Adaptable Rigging: The Ultimate Arri Pin-Loc 19mm Rod Clamp
In the world of professional cinematography, a stable and adaptable camera rig is not a luxury—it's a necessity. Every component must be reliable, versatile, and seamlessly integrated. Introducing the Upgrade Innovations Arri 3/8″ Pin-Loc 19mm Rod Clamp, an essential piece of hardware engineered to solve one of the most common rigging challenges: adding a secure, offset accessory mount exactly where you need it.
Modern camera builds are complex ecosystems of lenses, monitors, wireless transmitters, and follow focus systems. Finding a secure mounting point for a critical accessory like a lens motor can be a frustrating puzzle. This clamp is the elegant solution. It leverages the industry-standard Arri 3/8″ Pin-Loc mounting pattern, utilizing the two anti-twist pins to create a rock-solid, rotation-free connection to your camera cage or accessory plate. The genius of its design lies in its versatility. With a simple adjustment, the clamp can be positioned in 90-degree increments, allowing you to orient a 19mm rod either horizontally or vertically. This flexibility is a game-changer on set, enabling you to perfectly position a lens motor underneath the lens or an EVF bracket off to the side, all with a single, compact component.
Built for the rigors of daily on-set use, the Upgrade Innovations clamp is precision-machined from a single block of high-grade, anodized aircraft aluminum. This construction ensures it is both incredibly strong and surprisingly lightweight, adding minimal bulk to your build while providing maximum strength. You can trust it to hold expensive equipment securely, shot after shot. Adjustments are fast and intuitive thanks to the low-profile Kipp mini wing knob. It provides excellent tactile grip for tool-less tightening and loosening, even while wearing gloves, and its compact design prevents it from snagging on cables or interfering with other parts of your rig.
Stop compromising on your camera setup. The Upgrade Innovations Arri 3/8″ Pin-Loc 19mm Rod Clamp is more than just a piece of metal; it’s a problem-solver that brings stability, flexibility, and peace of mind to your workflow. Whether you’re a solo operator, a camera assistant, or a rental house outfitting a fleet of cameras, this clamp is an indispensable investment in a faster, more secure, and more professional rigging experience.
