Superior Stability for Studio Lighting

The Flashpoint 86" Telescopic Boom Arm is built from chrome-plated steel to resist corrosion and handle frequent studio use. Its robust design keeps lighting fixtures locked in place, preventing unwanted shifts during critical shoots. Professionals and dedicated hobbyists gain a reliable overhead mounting point that stands up to daily rigour.

Build Integration and Flexible Reach

The arm telescopes from 46 to 86 inches, letting you place lights overhead or at creative angles without moving the stand base. A 5/8" receiver fits standard light-stand tops, so the boom drops into existing grip kits without extra adapters. The ratcheting pivot clamp handle locks the angle securely, freeing you to adjust height and focus on composition.

Counterweight Hook and Load Range

A rubber-coated section on the counterweight hook provides a comfortable, secure grip for quick height changes and safe sandbag attachment. The boom supports fixtures from 5.1 to 8 lbs, covering most compact strobes and continuous lights at full extension. Heavier heads or multi-light rigs exceed this capacity and require a heavier-duty boom.
