About Our Company

             Innovating Since 1975                       Family Owned, Family Feel
                                                                      2011 Price List  


Stand Components
Our stands and grip heads have now made their mark in the industry. All stands are made from 100% stainless steel to prevent them from rusting.
All grip heads and extension arms feature our new Modern handle, redesigned two years ago.
We have also recently released the stainless steel version of our removable riser, spider based, c-stand. We have also released our new stainless steel steadicam stand.
Our combo stands, (both 2-riser and 3-riser), have become extremely popular, and come standard with the combination Jr. receiver and pop-up baby pin. We also offer both versions with a 4 1/2" Grip Head, rather than combination head.

Grid Clamps
We offer an array of grid clamps that fit both the standard 1 1/4" and 1 1/2" sized pipe.
Reducers have also been recently added to the line of grid clamps. These reducers can be purchased to convert our standard grid clamps so that they can clamp 3/4" and 1" schedule 40 pipe.

Car Mounts
Innovation is the key when developing our products. We believe that items should be as versatile as they are durable. Our side mount is considered one of the best in the industry.
Every part of our side mount is adjustable, and features a large cheese plate so that your options are limitless.

Camera Mounts
Our leveling mounts have surpassed industry standards, with innovations such as the Mini Ball Camera Leveling Mount and the Deluxe Low-Profile Dish Mount. Our mounts are made from the strongest, most durable material- guaranteed to last.

Camera Sliders
For over 3 years, we have been manufacturing our camera sliders. They are a low profile slider that can be under-slung and even used in water.
Our bearings are practically maintenance free, and require only WD-40® to be sprayed on them after use.
All camera sliders now come with a 360° swivel option and friction control.
We offer a 2', 3', 4', 5', 6', 8', and 10' sliders. Cases are also offered for all sizes.

Dollies and Carts
Appearing in our catalog over 15 years ago was the first ever 4-wheel steering doorway dolly.
Not only did we truly create the first doorway dolly with all wheel steering, we took it one step further. We offered the standard wood-based dolly, then further developed the cheese-plate base. This dolly has no limits, as you can rig from anywhere on the cheese-plate.

Grip Essentials
Being a manufacturer focused on the individual, means that we also develop innovative products that make rigging easier. With developments such as the recessed light socket adapter (featured to the left ), we found that we can create a Teflon based socket adapter that is non-conductive; for rigging onto light fixtures.
As well, we created the speed wrench. We took a heavy duty battery wrench and adapted it for use in our industry. It has become a staple to those within the industry.

Mounting Equipment
Although a broad term, we consider every product we make, "Mounting Equipment".
We developed the first family of Speed C-clamps, and have now added the deep jaw and 5/8" Speed C, to our growing line of clamps. As well, we have in the past year, developed the flat screen monitor mount (shown below). This versatile, yet inexpensive, mount fits all standard flat screen monitors under 20".
It offers a 180° adjustable plate, and utilizes your monitors existing screws. Although other mounts are being sold in the industry, this has proven to be one of our most popular new items and highly competitive when compared to other mounts.

Three-Sided Floppies
Within the past 2 years, we have been creating both 3-sided & 4-sided floppies. All floppies are made of 16oz. commando cloth or optional ultra bounce material, and both materials are sewn onto our 100% stainless steel frames.

Flags and Frames
We were the first in the industry to make our flag frames and open end frames out of 100% stainless steel material. Our frames will not rust or corrode and make future recovers much easier.
We also developed the first seamless flat gel frames. Our new flat gel frames are made from one seamless piece of flat stock aluminum. Less welds mean less chance of breaking. As well, the new rounded edges mean less chance of injuries. Our pins are staggered, and as opposed to other frames in the industry, 48 of our frames fit into a standard 4x4 cart, rather than the standard 40.
