Impact Heavy-Duty Crossbar Overview

The black Heavy-Duty 9' Adjustable Background Crossbar from Impact is a 3-section telescoping crossbar that adjusts from 45 to 118". It securely holds a 9' roll of seamless paper or smaller cored roll, or any 10' muslin background (adjustable pole maximum width for fabric is 118"). It fits on top of two stands with 5/8" studs. Two thumb screws secure the crossbar onto the 5/8" studs.

Material
Anodized aluminum construction
Adjustable Length
The crossbar adjusts from 45 to 118". The telescoping sections let you adjust the length of your crossbar to any paper or fabric background within those lengths. You can adjust to the precise length to fit irregular background sizes, so your background doesn't have side-to-side play.
Three Telescoping Sections
The three non-locking telescoping sections won't jam or stick so you can easily adjust the length of the crossbar to different sized widths.
Sturdy Tubing
A 9' roll of seamless paper is a heavy weight for the crossbar, and if the crossbar isn't strong enough, the crossbar, and the roll, can sag and cause your paper background to crinkle. The heavy-duty tubing prevents the paper roll's core from sagging, so your paper background will stay flat and pristine.
Locking T-Screws
The included locking T-screws on both ends of the crossbar ensure that your background is securely anchored to your light stands.

Nice crossbar seems well made. My only complaint is that the lock screws were both bent. Note to manufacture, tape lock screws to pole when packaging.

Is this type of product capable of holding lighting instruments, or is something else recommended?
Asked by: Bill
A steel c stand and steel mini boom plus counterweight would be better for supporting an instrument over a crossbar which is not designed to support a large weight suspended from one point.

Product name says 9' which is 108" but description says it's 118". Which is correct because 108 will not fit a 108 wide seamless paper roll?
Asked by: John
The Impact Heavy-Duty 9' Adjustable Background Crossbar (Black) will extend from 45" to 118", so it will be able to accommodate the standard 107" or 9' roll from Savage.

Will this support your 8’ x 10’ Savage Infinity White Vinyl Background? And will this fit into any basic light stands?

The cross bar can. It has receivers for 5/8 baby pins on both ends. Make sure your stands are adequate for the load weight of a roll of vinyl.
