Tripod Quick-Release Plate Mount Ulanzi CK01 — dual 1/4" thread, plate-style connector

Ulanzi CK01 is a compact plate-style quick-release tripod mount designed to provide a stable and versatile connection between cameras, gimbals and accessories. The mount features dual 1/4" threaded connections integrated into a low-profile aluminium plate, allowing simultaneous attachment or alternative mounting positions. Its compact footprint and plate-style connector streamline on-location setups and speed up camera changes for both photography and videography applications.

Advantages

The dual 1/4" thread design offers flexibility by accommodating two standard screw ports, enabling direct attachment of cameras and accessories without adapters. The plate-style connector provides quick-release convenience for fast mounting and removal, while the aluminium construction keeps the plate lightweight yet durable. The low-profile design helps maintain balance on gimbals and tripods and reduces the risk of accidental snagging during transport or use.

Suitable for

• Mirrorless and compact DSLR cameras with a 1/4" tripod socket
• Gimbals and stabilizers that accept plate-style quick-release connectors
• On-location photo and video shoots requiring fast camera swaps
• Accessory mounting such as LED panels, microphones, or monitor brackets

Key specifications

• Connector type: plate-style quick-release mount with dual 1/4" threaded ports
• Material: aluminium alloy (lightweight, corrosion-resistant)
• Profile: low-profile design for stability on tripods and gimbals
• Compatibility: fits standard 1/4" screw sockets on cameras and accessories
• Finish: anodized surface for wear resistance

How to use

Attach the plate to the camera or accessory by aligning the appropriate 1/4" threaded port and turning the screw until secure. If required, use both threaded ports to mount additional accessories or to change the mounting orientation for better balance. Slide or clip the plate-style connector into the matching quick-release clamp on your tripod head or gimbal and engage the clamp according to the head manufacturer’s instructions. Verify that the device is firmly seated and balanced before releasing support or starting motion.

Usage recommendations

Ensure screws are tightened sufficiently to prevent movement but avoid overtightening which may damage threads. Check balance on gimbals after mounting and, when using multiple accessories, distribute weight evenly to maintain stable operation.
