Mounting Arm for Softbox GlareOne Uchwyt - adjustable length 63–178 cm, model 11461-uniw

The GlareOne Uchwyt mounting arm (adjustable length 63–178 cm, model 11461-uniw) is a telescopic support arm designed to secure softboxes, reflectors and similar light modifiers to stands, booms or other support systems. It provides a variable reach and stable connection for continuous or strobe lighting, enabling precise placement of a softbox or blenda in studio and location environments. The construction balances portability with rigidity to support common small to medium light modifiers used in photography.

Advantages

The mounting arm offers a wide adjustable length range from 63 to 178 cm, giving flexibility for close or extended setups. It is compatible with standard mounting points used on softboxes and light modifiers, allowing quick attachment and repositioning. The telescopic design reduces storage space when retracted and extends smoothly for longer reach. Its build focuses on stable support and repeatable positioning to maintain lighting consistency during shoots.

Suitable for

• Securing softboxes and reflectors to light stands or booms
• Extending reach for overhead or side lighting in studio work
• Location photography where adjustable directional control is required
• Attaching small to medium continuous or strobe lights with light modifiers

Key specifications

• Adjustable length: 63–178 cm
• Telescopic sections for compact storage and extended reach
• Compatibility: designed for softboxes, reflectors and similar modifiers
• Intended use: support for continuous and strobe lighting
• Portable design suitable for studio and on-location setups

How to use

Extend the telescopic arm to the desired length and secure the locking mechanisms according to the manufacturer's guidance to prevent slippage. Attach the softbox or reflector to the arm using the compatible mounting point, then fix the arm to a stand or boom ensuring all clamps and connectors are tightened. Adjust the angle and position of the modifier to achieve the required lighting direction, and recheck all locks before operating lights. Retract the arm to its compact length for transport or storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the arm within its specified length limits and avoid overloading it with equipment heavier than typical small to medium modifiers. When used on booms or elevated stands, pair the arm with adequate counterweights or a stable support to maintain balance. Regularly inspect locking mechanisms and connection points for wear and tighten as needed to ensure safe operation.
