Kupo KCP-172 Mini Articulated Arm — Two Hybrid Heads with Baby Pins for Secure Mounting
The Kupo KCP-172 is a single-section mini articulated arm built with two Hybrid Heads and a slim aluminum tube. It provides secure mounting points for lighting and camera accessories through its baby pins and dual-thread options. The arm’s compact design and matt black anodized finish make it suitable for discreet, professional setups.
Design and construction
The arm uses an aluminum tube with a 13mm diameter, 1.1mm wall thickness and a 28.5cm length. The tube features a matt black anodized finish that resists wear and reduces reflections. Overall, the construction focuses on lightweight rigidity and a low-visibility appearance for studio and location use.
Heads and mounting features
Each Mini Grip Head includes a baby pin with multi-milling flats. These flats let the pin seat quickly into a baby socket and hold an attached object stably. Additionally, each baby pin is tapped separately with both 3/8” and 1/4” threads. Therefore, the arm fits a variety of lighting and camera accessories that use either thread size.
