Safeguard your studio lighting investments with the Spectrum 280cm Heavy-Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand. Engineered for commercial photographers, videographers, and content creators who demand rock-solid stability, this heavy-duty stand combines a robust 10kg load capacity with an integrated pneumatic air-cushioning system that prevents sudden equipment drops.
When section locks are loosened during height adjustments, the internal air cushion gently lowers extended gear rather than slamming down. This critical safety feature protects sensitive light heads, internal flash tubes, COB LED chips, and heavy softboxes from impact damage. Built with extra-thick 35mm main leg tubing, durable aluminium locking knobs, and a reversible 5/8" spigot featuring 1/4" and 3/8" threads, this stand provides universal support for studio equipment from Spectrum, Godox, Aputure, Bowens, Profoto, and more.
Features
- Pneumatic Air-Cushioned Safety: Internal air dampers cushion sudden drops when unlatching section knobs, protecting expensive studio strobes, COB lights, and modifiers from shock damage.
- Heavy-Duty 10kg Payload Capacity: Sturdy 35mm max diameter pole construction supports large continuous LED fixtures, parabolic softboxes, heavy studio flashes, and boom arm attachments.
- Universal Reversible 5/8" Spigot: Comes equipped with a removable 5/8" baby pin spigot with dual 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 male threads for seamless mounting of lights, ball heads, bracket mounts, and microphones.
- Durable Aluminium Locking Knobs: High-torque aluminium locks replace cheap plastic knobs, ensuring a non-slip grip that stays rigid under heavy daily studio use.
- Extended 280cm Reach: Reaches an impressive maximum working height of 2.8m while folding down to a compact 95cm profile for straightforward storage and transport.
