Avenger Scissor Clip with 16 mm Stud C1000 – Avenger lighting grip accessory

Avenger Scissor Clip C1000 is a compact lighting grip accessory that integrates a 16 mm (5/8") stud into a scissor-style clamp. It is designed to secure lights, modifiers and rigging hardware to stands, trusses or pipes in studio and location production environments where a 16 mm spigot connection is required. The clamp mechanism offers a space-saving solution for mounting fixtures and small booms without adding bulk to the setup.

Advantages

The scissor clip provides a stable 16 mm mounting point while keeping the overall profile small. Its integrated stud eliminates the need for separate adapters in many setups and simplifies quick changes of lights and accessories. The clamping action is suitable for attaching to round pipes and stand tubes commonly used in lighting rigs, enabling a reliable connection for medium-duty fixtures and modifiers.

Suitable for

• Attaching lights with a 16 mm spigot to stands, booms or truss pipes
• Mounting small modifiers, reflectors or flags in studio and on-location shoots
• Creating compact rigging points where a fixed 16 mm stud is needed

When it may not be suitable

This scissor-style clamp is intended for medium-duty mounting tasks and for use with fixtures and accessories that match a 16 mm spigot. It may not be appropriate for supporting very heavy fixtures, large booms or any load that exceeds the manufacturer's rated capacity. For heavy-duty rigging, larger clamps, dedicated heavy-duty grips or professional-rated hardware should be used.

Key specifications

• Integrated stud size: 16 mm (5/8")
• Clamp type: scissor-style with tightening mechanism
• Intended mounting surfaces: round pipes, stand tubes, truss elements
• Typical use: studio and location lighting rigging for fixtures and modifiers

How to use

Open the scissor clip, position the clamp jaws around the stand tube, pipe or truss member and close the clamp so the jaws contact the mounting surface securely. Tighten the clamp according to the built-in mechanism until the clip holds firm without slipping. Attach the light or accessory to the 16 mm stud and check that the mounted item is stable and oriented as required. Re-check tightness after adjusting position and during continued use to maintain a secure connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your fixture or accessory uses a 16 mm (5/8") spigot connection
• Ensure the clamp style and jaw opening suit the diameter of your stands, pipes or truss
• Confirm load requirements and do not exceed the intended capacity for medium-duty clamps

Usage recommendations

Use the Avenger Scissor Clip C1000 for quick, compact mounting of lights and small accessories where a 16 mm stud is required. Always secure and test the connection before leaving rigging unattended and pair the clip with appropriate safety cables or secondary supports when used overhead or with valuable equipment.
