Matthews Studio Equipment - The Claw - Tube Clamp For T12 Lights

THE CLAW from Matthews Studio Equipment, is a new piece of hardware designed to safely mount Astera Titan and Helios as well as T12 tube lights using the industry standard 5/8” baby pin. The Claw offers compatibility with any common rigging that has a female 5/8” baby receiver, allowing users to place tube lights in a number of different places and configurations with ease. Unlike other mounting hardware where the pin mounts at a right angle to the tube, The Claw’s pin mounts off the back of the tube, giving it the lowest profile of any clamp on the market. The Claw’s threaded pin is activated by rotating the winged handle, clamping its 4 fingers more than 180-degrees around the tube for a safe and secure hold.
