Oben Magnetic Mount with 1/4"-20 Mounting Screw

The Oben Magnetic Mount with 1/4"-20 Mounting Screw, model MM-50, is a compact magnetic camera-support accessory designed for securely mounting compatible cameras and equipment to flat ferromagnetic surfaces. It uses a rare-earth magnet housed in a low-profile body and provides a standard 1/4"-20 male mounting screw, allowing direct attachment of compatible cameras, ball heads, extension arms, small camcorders, action-camera accessories, and other photographic or video equipment.

The MM-50 provides a specified vertical pull resistance of up to 44 lb (20 kg) when positioned on a suitable flat metal surface. Its magnetic holding performance depends on the material, thickness, surface condition, and geometry of the mounting surface, so the stated pull force should not be treated as a universal equipment load rating. The compact 2.6-inch magnetic base provides a practical balance between holding force and portability for temporary camera and accessory mounting applications.

A specially formulated rubber coating covers the magnetic contact surface to improve grip while helping protect the mounting surface from scratches and reducing unwanted movement. The 1/4"-20 mounting interface follows a widely used camera-accessory standard, providing compatibility with a broad range of small-format imaging equipment and support accessories. The mount is particularly useful for applications involving vehicles, boats, metal structures, production environments, and other locations where conventional tripod placement is impractical.

The MM-50 is designed as a compact, portable mounting solution for small cameras and accessories rather than as a general-purpose heavy-duty rigging point. Its 96 g weight and 8 mm overall height make it easy to incorporate into mobile production kits, while the magnetic interface enables rapid repositioning between suitable metal mounting locations. For professional use, the mounting surface should always be tested before equipment is installed, particularly where vibration, movement, or overhead positioning is involved.
