Fastens securely, easy to swivel & secure. Only downside: 12 inch gels don't quite cover the surface.

Works great. The clips on the reflector lets me attach a 3x ND filter to reduce power to a white background. Before this reflector, I couldn't get a low enough level on a white background....I would get excessive lens flair.

Can the speedring be unscrewed and replaced with another speedring designed to mount on other strobes?
Asked by: Will
The speedring is held by three rivets, cannot be unscrewed. Rivets could be popped out, and another ring mounted, if you could find the exact size.

question

Will this fit the Impact SF-ABRL160 monolights?
Asked by: Mikhail M.
No, the Impact Background Reflector for Impact/Bowens Mount Strobes is not compatible for use with the Impact SF-ABRL160 Stand Mount Flash. The Imact Backgrond Reflector is only compatible with light fixtures that have a Bowens S-mount. The Impact SF-ABRL 160 has a proprietary mount, and would only be compatible for use with the Impact Barndoor Kit for SF-ABRL160 Flash, B&H # IMBDSFABRL, or the Impact Snoot for SF-ABRL160 Flash Head, B&H # IMSSFABRL.
