Why use the KS-079 adapter?

Spigots on C-Stands, booms, and various other stands often have different lengths. As a result, heads can fail to seat securely on longer spigots. The KS-079 adapter addresses this specific concern by providing a tailored interface for Elinchrom heads. In practice, this reduces wobble and improves the security of your mounted head when you use stands with extended spigot lengths.

Practical applications

1. Mounting Elinchrom heads on C-Stands with longer-than-normal spigots.
2. Using booms or auxiliary stands where the ANSI Standard 5/8" (16mm) spigot protrudes further than expected.
3. Attaching accessories via the included 1/4’’-20 thread options on the top of the stud.
