Studio accessory for backdrop systems

The Kupo Replacement Chain Weight is a dedicated counterbalance component for Background Paper Drive Sets. It supplies the tension needed to keep a paper roll feeding smoothly during shoots. Photographers who operate a compatible drive set and need a spare or replacement weight will use this part.

Check your drive set compatibility

This weight is made for the Kupo Background Paper Drive Set; verify that your existing unit accepts the same attachment style before ordering. No mounting hardware is included, so you must reuse the fasteners from the original weight. The part does not fit other brands or roller systems without modification.

Light weight for easy handling

At .55 lbs the chain weight adds minimal mass to a lighting stand or overhead rig, making transport and repositioning simple. Its compact profile does not shift the centre of gravity noticeably, so the stand remains stable during normal studio use. No power, cooling or noise considerations apply to this passive component.
