The Mafer clamp is a versatile grip clamp used to create a secure mounting point on suitable production structures and surfaces. It can support compatible baby-pin accessories, arms and light-control hardware when a conventional floor stand is not the most efficient solution.
Mafer clamps are common on studio sets, location work, tabletop builds and vehicle or set-wall rigging when used by an experienced crew. Match the clamp to the material, geometry and load, protect the mounting surface as needed, and use appropriate safety measures for the entire rig.
For a smaller magnetic mounting option, see the Mag Clamp with Baby Pin. Add controlled positioning with the Baby Plate with Swivel, or compare the Cardellini Clamp.
