Kupo KS-062 5/8" (16mm) Receiver with 3/8"-16 Thread — Locking adapter for quick, secure mounting

The Kupo KS-062 is a baby receiver that features a 3/8"-16 male thread on its top. It mounts directly onto any baby stud and locks firmly in place using a set-screw and knob. This compact adapter lets you attach accessories quickly and securely to 5/8" (16mm) light stands, C-stands, and other baby pins.

What this receiver does

Use the KS-062 to convert a 5/8" (16mm) baby receiver into a 3/8"-16 threaded mounting point. Because the male 3/8"-16 thread sits on top of the baby receiver, you can attach fixtures that accept a 3/8"-16 receptor. The built-in set-screw and knob provide a secure lock so the adapter stays in place during use.

Common uses and benefits

• Allows vertical or horizontal mounting of a light fixture, flash, or camera that has a 3/8"-16 threaded receptor — giving you flexible positioning options.
• Serves as a locking adapter for 5/8” light stands, converting the stand’s baby pin into a 3/8"-16 mount.
• The set screw locks the receiver firmly in place, so you can rely on stable support for mounted accessories.
• Quickly mount a hot shoe flash when used with the Hot Shoe Adapter (KS-039), enabling fast on-set adjustments.
• Quickly mount a field monitor onto the baby pin of a C-Stand, simplifying rigging for monitoring setups.

How to use the KS-062

First, place the KS-062 onto a baby stud or baby pin. Next, tighten the set-screw and knob to lock the adapter firmly to the stud. Finally, thread your 3/8"-16 compatible accessory onto the male thread at the top. You can orient the mounted accessory vertically or horizontally, depending on your setup needs.

Compatibility and practical notes

The KS-062 works with any baby stud or 5/8" (16mm) baby pin. It provides a standard 3/8"-16 threaded top, so it mates with lights, flashes, monitors, and other accessories that accept that common thread size. For mounting hot shoe flashes, pair it with the Kupo Hot Shoe Adapter KS-039.
