Kupo 12 ft Air Cushioned Light Stand
The Kupo Universal 12' Air Cushioned Light Stand is a robust aluminium support built for photography and videography lighting. Finished in black, it uses a 3-riser, 4-section design to reach a maximum working height of 151.6 inches. Twin leg braces and a round leg profile add stability for studio strobes, monolights and reflectors. The 5/8 inch top stud with 3/8"-16 thread secures equipment firmly.
Upgrade from lighter or shorter stands
This stand replaces lighter-duty models that cannot hold heavier heads or reach the same elevation. The air-cushioned mechanism protects expensive fixtures from sudden drops when lowering the column. The jump is worth it when you regularly mount loads up to 19.8 lbs or need the full 12-foot extension for overhead lighting. It also suits crews who value faster, safer height changes on location.
Check your kit before ordering
Verify that your lighting heads accept a 5/8 inch stud with 3/8"-16 threading. Confirm the combined weight of head and modifier stays within the 17.1 to 19.8 lb capacity range. Ensure you have space to transport the 41 to 42 inch folded length and can manage the 3.1 to 5 lb weight. Buyers needing greater load capacity or taller reach should consider heavy-duty alternatives.

Questions about this item
What is the folded length of the 12 ft Kupo stand so I can check if it fits in my gear bag?
The stand collapses to between 41 and 42 inches, making it compact enough for most lighting kits and travel cases.
How do I mount a monolight on the 5/8 inch top stud with 3/8-16 thread without it loosening during a shoot?
Thread the light’s 3/8-16 socket onto the stud, then tighten the knurled locking collar by hand until the monolight no longer rotates.
When should I service the air-cushion mechanism on the 3-riser columns to keep the descent smooth?
If the columns start dropping faster than a controlled glide, wipe the inner tubes clean and apply a light silicone spray to the riser walls.
