Impact LS-CL40M Overview

This C-Stand with Quick Release Sliding Leg with Grip Arm from Impact features a 40" double riser for sturdy support of light fixtures and accessories weighing up to 22 lb. This chrome sliding leg model has an adjustable top leg designed for leveling the stand on uneven surfaces including stairs or curbs. Impact's unique quick release leg lock simplifies opening and closing the legs for rapid deployment and breakdown. With a simple twist, the legs open to the perfect position, with no extra positioning required, then tightening the knob to lock everything in place. The C-stand's unique staggered leg height allows it to be placed close to other stands when floor space is at a premium or if several stands need to fit in a small area. Constructed with oversized steel tubing for maximum rigidity and strength, oversized locking handles, and stainless steel brake inserts, this C-stand will hold securely until it's time to wrap.

The 40" Grip Arm features a fixed 2.5" grip head with large, ergonomic T-handles for maximum torque. When combined with the beefy 2.5" grip head, it creates a sturdy setup for supporting light fixtures and light-modifying gobos like flags, silks, and scrims.

Quick Release Legs
The unique quick release system requires only a slight twist to let the feet fall perfectly into place. Once open, no additional adjustment is required when using on level ground.
Sliding Leg Design
The sliding leg design allows one leg to be set at any height to position the stand on a curb or stairs and have the same solid support as on flat ground.
Adjustable Height
This sturdy double riser C-stand is designed to support a light fixture or accessory weighing up to 22 lb anywhere from 4.3 to 10.3'.
40" Grip Arm
The included 40" stainless steel grip arm is engineered to securely hold most lights, light modifiers, and grip gear weighing up to 10 lb.
2.5" Grip Head
Both 2.5" grip heads provide a 5/8" hole for grip arms and other baby baby pin attachments, a 3/8" hole for gobos and flags, as well as 1/2" and 1/8" holes. The aluminum alloy construction gives the grip heads durable strength to withstand the most demanding production environments. Its beefy construction can secure light fixtures or other accessories like butterfly and overhead frames.
Heli-Coil Inserts
The stainless steel heli-coil brake inserts assure incredible gripping power and withstand a significant amount of torque without damaging the C-stand's brake casting.
Oversized Tubes
The stand features oversized tubes that will support lateral stress loads without flexing. Loads will be secure and won't wobble even at maximum load capacity set at maximum stand height.
Large T-Handles
Large, ergonomic T-handles are easy to grip and offer maximum torque for securing payloads.

Heavy Stand That Does the Job

By Brenden
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2026-03-18

I currently own 2 of these stands and have really been enjoying them. The locking base makes it really easy to open and close the stands in seconds with minimal effort. Compared to other C-stands I've used these are quite heavy to carry and move around, but it does make it so I don't need to bag them all the time. The black paint does chip off but that's to be expected when using them day-to-day.

Nicer design house-brand C-stand than the other store. 😉

I own C stands of this size from both B&H and the 'rama store, and while I like both stores, I prefer these shorty C-stands from B&H. The turtle base's locking mechanisms is noticeably superior and stronger, the chrome plated finisher on the riser and base is just so smooth and clean, and the locking knobs feel tighter (while at once feeling less difficult to open than the alternative). I prefer these 5.9' C-stands + a boom arm to add height over the taller impact C-stands, especially for on location work. If you need to get your lights/modifier really high or if you're using C-stands to mount your backdrop crossbar for subjects that are standing, I would go for the taller C-stands than these 5.9' stands, but for the majority of my uses, I'm a huge fan of these 5.9' stands and own multiple.
