If you need to mount to a super clamp, this comes with (4) 5 mm-0.8 x 16 mm internal hex plain steel metric socket cap screws [uses 4mm hex key, length is measured from the bottom of the cap to the end of the screw] with (4) 5 mm stainless-steel flat washers [i.d. 0.19 in, o.d. 0.37 in, thickness 0.032 in]. There are a pair of mounting holes on each side at the top, middle, and bottom of each bracket. I like to use two super clamps per bracket, and can confirm the orange box store has these exactly, #574193 and #366757. This bracket also comes with two plastic spacers if you only want to use one super clamp per bracket.
OMG!

Im so glad I found this. was looking for a way to hold multiple backdrops without having to drill in my ceiling or walls. I use this and can now change backdrops with confidence! No more standing on a stool, trying to keep my balance!!

A few Questions: 1.) Do I have to buy the poles separate? 2.) Do I have to buy the expan drive set seperate and is that the thing that allows me to raisw and lower the paper? 3.) Do you sell a kit with everything you need?
You can buy it as a kit ready to go https://bhpho.to/2yNURCQ. This is a easy kit for raising and lowering up to three backgrounds.

Can I attach this to the background stands that I already own or does it only work with Manfrotto stands?
I used my own stands. I’d just make sure that they are pretty decent quality and not the real cheap, thin aluminum kind. These hooks are pretty beefy and will easily dent and bend lower quality stands.

Can this be used with 3 vinyl backdrops instead of paper backdrops? I think the vinyl ones are heavier than paper so concerned that the brackets won't hold up.
No , vinyl is too heavy
