2.5" Grip Head
The 2.5" grip head is a go-to piece of industry-standard gear that's compatible with C-stands, light stands, and baby pin wall mounts. This tough and versatile grip head includes a precision-cut 5/8" hole for grip arms and other baby-pin attachments, a 3/8" hole for gobos, and a 1/8" hole for holding the thin wires used for rigging fingers and dots.
Aluminum Construction

Its beefy construction can secure light fixtures or other accessories like butterfly and overhead frames. An integrated textured aluminum friction disc assures long-lasting performance.

Impact Grip Head Reviews

Great Dies everythin

This grip head is a valuable tool to have because you can use it to make any c-stand connection you may need, especially if you forgot something, or if you need it to connect different poles with differing diameters, it turns and twists every which way and is very durably made .

An Impressive Grip Head for a Great Price!

So really impressed by the build quality of this grip head. It says it is made out of aluminum but when I first unpacked it I was convinced it was a steel of sorts. This thing has some weight to it. But what I did enjoy the most was the hexagon shape head it has, which makes it much easier and faster to find the hole I'm looking to use. Sometimes on my round grip heads get crazy unscrewed; they fall out of alignment and it's a pain to get them back to where they need to be. The hexagon shape minimizes that frustration in my opinion. I don't have any real cons of this product at the moment. But will be interested to see how it holds up throughout the test of time. The ultimate test to any piece of grip equipment. But I can confidently recommend this grip head for those who are on a budget and don't want to spend almost twice the price on a name brand grip head.  [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review.]

Can this securely hold an 8mm umbrella shaft? ...

Can this securely hold an 8mm umbrella shaft? It's unclear if the 1/8" accessory mount could handle it.
Asked by: Austin
The 1/8" accessory mount on the Impact 2.5" Grip Head (Black) is too small to hold an 8mm umbrella shaft.
