SmallRig 5632 HawkLock H21 Quick Release Top Handle

SmallRig 5632 HawkLock H21 Quick Release Top Handle – Patented Bidirectional NATO Quick Release for Fast Low-Angle Shooting

Designed for dynamic low-angle shooting, the SmallRig 5632 HawkLock H21 Quick Release Top Handle delivers a stable and comfortable handheld experience. It features a patented HawkLock quick release NATO rail that enables bidirectional installation with one-touch self-locking. Therefore, you avoid orientation checks and additional fastening, which significantly improves setup efficiency on set.

Ergonomic grip and handling

The handle is wrapped in textured, eco-friendly silicone. This material provides superior comfort while offering a non-slip, cold-resistant grip. As a result, you maintain secure handling during extended handheld shoots and in colder conditions.

Durable construction and load support

SmallRig builds the handle from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy. Consequently, it offers rugged durability and supports loads of up to 15kg. This strength helps the handle withstand demanding shooting scenarios while carrying heavier accessories.

Multiple mounting interfaces for accessory integration

The handle includes several mounting interfaces to integrate common filmmaking accessories. These interfaces allow you to attach monitor mounts, magic arms, and video lights without changing your core setup. Specifically, the handle is equipped with:

• 1/4"-20 threaded holes and locating holes
• H18 quick release cold shoe mount
• 3/8"-16 ARRI locating holes

Additionally, the included ARRI-compatible H21 NATO rail enables quick attachment to standard ARRI locating screws. This ensures compatibility with both new and older cages, which reduces the need for additional upgrades.

Secure attachment features

The NATO rail uses magnetic anti-drop roll pins to prevent accidental detachment of the handle. This built-in security feature helps keep your handle and attached accessories stable during movement.
