Kupo CT-20M Master C-Stand with Turtle Base – Open and collapse legs in under two seconds with patented spring ring locking

The Kupo Master C Stand with Turtle Base brings a unique innovation to C Stands: a patented spring ring locking system that removes tension from the legs so gravity does the work. This design lets you open or collapse the base in under two seconds, making setup and breakdown faster on busy sets.

Quick overview of the Master C Stand

This Master C Stand is a 50cm double riser configuration with two telescoping risers and one main section, giving a total riser length of 1.73m. The stand uses a turtle base design, which allows the riser section to be quickly removed from the base for easier transportation. You add the height of the base to the riser total to reach the stand’s maximum height.

Durable materials and reliable construction

The stand base uses a zinc alloy casting that is five times stronger than aluminum to handle heavy sandbags and demanding on-set use. The stand’s locking collars are aluminum castings fitted with a stainless steel heli-coil. The heli-coil protects the aluminum from damage by the knob’s stainless steel stift, enhancing strength and durability. The stand is finished with chrome plating.
