The Light Source Mini-Claw is a compact and versatile accessory clamp designed for securely attaching lightweight lighting fixtures, cabling, or small technical equipment to pipe, truss, or tubular structures in theatrical, event, and architectural lighting environments. Its hallmark feature is a spring-loaded, scissor-style clamping mechanism that opens with a simple squeeze of the handles, allowing for quick and tool-free installation onto a support structure. Once released, the powerful spring tension locks the clamp firmly in place, providing a reliable grip that resists slipping or rotation. The clamp is finished in a durable white powder coat, offering a clean, non-reflective appearance that blends discreetly into professional lighting setups and is resistant to chipping, corrosion, and general wear.

The body of the Mini-Claw is typically constructed from a high-strength composite or reinforced nylon material, making it both lightweight and exceptionally robust. This construction ensures it will not damage or mar the surface of the truss or pipe to which it is attached, which is particularly important when working with rented or finished equipment. The design incorporates multiple attachment points, most commonly featuring a standard 3/8-inch female receiver or a threaded stud on its body, allowing for the direct mounting of a small lighting instrument, a piggyback adapter for another clamp, or a hook for cable management. Its compact size makes it ideal for use in tight spaces or on crowded trusses where larger clamps would be impractical.

This accessory is an indispensable tool for lighting technicians, stagehands, and installers, providing a fast, secure, and reusable solution for a wide array of small rigging tasks. Common applications include mounting LED pars, small spotlights, gobo holders, color changers, or cable guides in stage productions, concert tours, trade show booths, and permanent architectural installations. The Light Source Mini-Claw combines practical, user-friendly design with dependable holding power, representing a fundamental piece of hardware for efficient and safe equipment mounting.
