SmallRig Crab-Shaped Clamp with Magic Arm

The SmallRig Crab-Shaped Clamp with Magic Arm is a professional camera-accessory mounting solution designed to securely attach monitors, lights, microphones, action cameras, and other compact production accessories to rods, pipes, tripod legs, tables, and other structural surfaces. The integrated crab-shaped clamp and articulated magic arm provide a versatile mounting platform for photography, videography, live production, and studio applications where flexible positioning and secure equipment support are required.

The clamp incorporates an adjustable jaw with protective padding and an anti-twist interface designed to improve stability during use. The magic arm provides multi-axis positioning through its articulated joints, while the 1/4"-20 mounting screw accommodates a broad range of standard camera accessories. Retractable locating pins on compatible versions help prevent attached equipment from rotating or deflecting during operation, while a knurled locking control enables tool-free adjustment.

Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy and stainless steel, the assembly combines relatively low weight with the rigidity required for professional accessory mounting. The clamp is capable of gripping surfaces within its specified jaw range, while the articulated arm allows the attached equipment to be positioned at the desired angle. This makes the system useful for positioning field monitors, compact LED lights, microphones, wireless receivers, cameras, and other lightweight production equipment.

The SmallRig system supports a maximum payload of 1.5 kg (3.3 lb), making it appropriate for compact accessories rather than heavy camera bodies or large fixtures. Its approximately 197 x 97 x 24 mm overall dimensions provide a compact solution for production kits where portability and rapid setup are important. The assembly is supplied as a combined clamp and magic-arm system with an Allen wrench for additional tightening and adjustment.
