Unfortunately B&H does not carry a replacement center column for this tripod. You would need to contact Gitzo/Manfrotto to order it. Their phone number is Tel: 201-818-9500.

question

What is the diameter of GT3542's power disc ? I know there is a lip (raise at the edge) on the new mountainner's power disc, I would like to know the inner diameter since I would like my ball head to fit firmly with the power disc.
Asked by: Andy S.
The edge of the disc is very slightly thicker than the main surface as you point out. However it isn't really an abrupt lip, but it slopes up the edge. The flat part of the disc is approximately 1 15/16 . My guess is Gitzo designed it that way to more securely lock down a ball head or gimbel head on the tripod using bit of a taper fit. I give them the benefit of knowing what they are doing, but you should make your own judgement call. My ball head and gimbel head seem to be very secure.

question

Hi, what is the diameter of GT3542's Power disc ? I know there is a lip on the power disc of the new mountaineer range, I would like to know the diameter within the lip since I want my ball head base fit firmly within the lip of the power disc.
Asked by: Anonymous
The outside diameter of the disc that the ball head mounts to is 68mm. The disc is flat and has a locking screw that puts tension on the bottom of the ballhead to prevent it from coming unscrewed. I have a Kirk BH-3 ballhead mounted on mine and its very secure. This is an excellent tripod and well worth the money, I'm very pleased with it.
