American Roadrunner Stand Rental
The American Roadrunner is a heavy-duty crank-up stand for supporting compatible production lighting fixtures and larger controlled setups. Its pneumatic wheels make it practical for moving equipment across suitable studio or location surfaces, while the crank mechanism helps crews raise and position a fixture with controlled vertical adjustment.
Use this stand where a conventional baby stand is not the right scale for the fixture or working height. Confirm the total fixture, modifier and mounting load before reserving, and use appropriate ballast, wheel locks and safety procedures for the environment.
