1" Arca-Swiss Compatible Clamp with Integrated QD Socket

This 1.0-inch Arca-Swiss compatible clamp is a precision-engineered mounting solution featuring a centered, integrated stainless steel Quick Detach (QD) socket. Designed for high-performance security, it includes a sleek black captive knob and a versatile mounting base, making it an ideal choice for professional camera carry systems and modular setups.

Quick Overview & Key Features

• Integrated QD Socket: Centered stainless steel Quick Detach (QD) socket accepts standard push-button QD mounts for rapid, secure strap integration.
• Sleek Black Captive Knob: Ergonomically designed for a secure grip; the captive mechanism ensures the knob stops at its maximum opening and cannot be lost in the field.

• Accidental Release Protection: The proven QD system—trusted for decades by NASA, law enforcement, and military agencies—provides an anti-accidental-release connection when carrying gear on a strap.
• Anti-Twist Integration: The rear side features a precision-machined groove to match professional ball head connections, effectively eliminating unwanted rotation during use.
• Tongue-in-Pocket Design: Protects internal parts from dust and grit while maintaining perfect jaw alignment and eliminating bending forces on the threaded stud.
• Premium Materials: Precision CNC-machined from solid 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum with a durable black hard-coat anodized finish.
• Made in the USA: Manufactured to exacting professional tolerances for lifelong reliability in demanding environments.

Secure Strap Integration & Mounting Versatility

This professional Arca-style clamp is specifically designed for photographers who prioritize both mounting speed and gear safety. The integrated QD socket allows you to attach your preferred QD-compatible strap directly to the clamp, facilitating fast and safe transitions between handheld shooting and tripod use.

Advanced Engineering for Field Performance: Built for the rigors of outdoor and tactical use, the black captive knob ensures you never lose critical hardware while working in the field. The center socket is countersunk on top to accept 1/4-20 or M6 screws and is also natively threaded for standard 3/8-16 tripod studs, providing exceptional flexibility for mounting on various ball heads, pan heads, and custom rigs. This clamp delivers the structural integrity and precision required for advanced technical photography.
